Hey woodworking fedi, how do I repair these in a way that does not cause trouble later on?

Currently they do not go all the way through but give it another 10 or 50 years and they likely will as the wood continues to shrink. So what do I need to do to make this thing usable now and repairable later?

@skye
I know what I would do if it was furniture, but as an instrument I think a Luthier, or other musical instrument maker/repairer might be best placed to advise.

definitely get an opinion from a luthier, what i might do to repair a chair or cabinet with cracks like that might not be appropriate on an instrument and i'd hate to give bad advice

@neckspike @skye
Good idea, if possible. The Luthier's advice might be free and helpful.
