I did this recently and the issue that I found most annoying is that if you leave Tauri running but don't use Lichess for a long time, then try to analyse, it just says "waiting for..." and doesn't work. I think that's really bad, since the best use of the system, for me, would be to set up a powerful machine, run Tauri on it, then use analysis with external engines on my laptop or mobile.

Other nice to haves:

P.S. I realize that the nice to haves imply access to the Tauri application, which is the opposite of what I would have tried in the first scenario, but I don't know how you would be able to leverage the API to store the analysis output and make it available on the current Lichess page you are using.
