# Intro

When a command is invoked, it is wrapped into the centralized `sendCommand(command, args)` pipeline. This pipeline handles network safety checks under the hood:

```mermaid
graph TD

    A([Your Command Call<br>e.g., window.reload]) --> B{Is activeSocket<br>connected & OPEN?}
    B -- YES --> C[Send payload directly<br>over WebSocket wire.]
    B -- NO --> D[Push to commandQueue<br>Drained on next connection.]
```

* **Immediate Execution:** If the native renderer socket is active and open, the command stringifies and sends immediately.
* **Offline Queuing:** If the socket is not ready yet, the command parameters are gracefully pushed into an internal `commandQueue` array so no actions are lost during early initialization cycles.
