Needs someone to dig in and look at the repro. We don't have any simple examples that use multiple windows to start with unfortunately (although that'd be a great item to pair with an investigation here).
@k1mmm if you have a reduced repro in any more detail that'd help jump start this.

You say this asserted. Did it work fine in release?

@chrisglein Sorry for the late response, I've set up an example repo for multi-window using AppWindow with [email protected], and the error is no longer reproducible, so the error is most likely on my end.

I'm closing this but leaving a link to the repo if you guys or anyone else needs a quick example app with a secondary window sharing the same JS context.
