Checksums

Changes since last release

Added

• fix_office_addin_linux.py — New patch: enable Office Addin MCP server on Linux by extending the (ui||as) platform gate in 3 locations (MCP isEnabled, init block, connected file detection). The underlying WebSocket bridge is platform-agnostic; this enables future compatibility with web Office or LibreOffice add-ins.
• fix_read_terminal_linux.py — New patch: enable read_terminal built-in MCP server on Linux (was hardcoded to darwin only). Reads integrated terminal panel content in CCD sessions.
• fix_browse_files_linux.py — New patch: add openDirectory to the browseFiles file dialog on Linux. Electron fully supports directory selection on Linux but upstream only enabled it for macOS.

Fixed

• fix_process_argv_renderer.py — Fix for v1.1.8308: hardcoded Ie variable name → dynamic \w+ capture. Upstream renamed the process proxy from Ie to at.
• fix_quick_entry_position.py — Fix for v1.1.8308: hardcoded ai window variable → dynamic [\w$]+ capture group. Upstream renamed Quick Entry window var from ai to Js.
• fix_dispatch_linux.py — Enhanced Patch I: now also transforms mcp__cowork__present_files tool_use blocks into SendUserMessage attachments, so file sharing renders on the phone.

Previous (2026-03-23)

Fixed

• fix_dispatch_linux.py — Restore Patch I (text→SendUserMessage transform) — Claude Code CLI 2.1.x has a bug where --brief + --tools SendUserMessage does not expose the SendUserMessage tool to the model. The model falls back to plain text, which the sessions API silently drops (only SendUserMessage tool_use blocks are rendered on the phone). Patch I injects a transform in forwardEvent() that wraps plain text assistant messages as synthetic SendUserMessage tool_use blocks before writing to the transport.

Changed

• fix_dispatch_linux.py — Removed Patch I — Reverted: Patch I is needed as a workaround for the CLI SendUserMessage bug

Added

• CLAUDE_BUILT_IN_MCP.md — Per-session dynamic MCP servers — Documented 4 SDK-type MCP servers created dynamically per cowork/dispatch session: dispatch (6 tools), cowork (4 tools), session_info (2 tools), workspace (2 tools). Includes tool schemas, registration method, allowedTools/disallowedTools logic, and SDK server architecture diagram comparing Mac/Windows VM vs Linux native paths.
• fix_updater_state_linux.py — New patch: add version/versionNumber empty strings to idle updater state so downstream code calling .includes() on version doesn't crash with TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined
• fix_process_argv_renderer.py — New patch: inject Ie.argv=[] into preload so SDK web bundle's process.argv.includes("--debug") no longer throws TypeError

Fixed

• Dispatch text responses now render — Patched the sessions-bridge rjt() filter (Patch F) to forward text content blocks and SDK MCP tool_use responses (mcp__dispatch__send_message, mcp__cowork__present_files)
• Navigator platform timing gap — Changed navigator.platform spoofing from dom-ready only to both did-navigate + dom-ready fallback, closing the window where page scripts see real navigator.platform while process.platform is already spoofed to "win32"
• Removed diagnostic patches G/H — forwardEvent and writeEvent logging removed from fix_dispatch_linux.py (no longer needed)

Documentation

• CLAUDE.md — Added "Dispatch Debug Workflow" section with step-by-step debug commands for bridge events, audit analysis, cowork-service args, and session clearing
• README.md — Added "Clear Dispatch session" troubleshooting section
