Changes since last release

Updated to Claude Desktop v1.21459.0

Routine upstream bump. Computer Use is still macOS/Windows-only upstream, so our Linux Computer Use support stays. One tool-description tweak re-fitted (open_application on Linux no longer tells the model to request allowlist access first, since our bridges reach every app). No new Linux-relevant changes upstream.

Removed 4 patches: we no longer keep "guard-only" patches

Dropped 4 patches (41 -> 37) that no longer modified the bundle and only asserted upstream's own behavior: the CLI-governor memory fix (#128), the /etc/claude-desktop/managed-settings.json reader (main + boot bundle), and the title-bar fix - all native in the official build. We keep only patches that modify the bundle.

KDE Plasma Wayland no longer misrouted to the "exotic" XWayland fallback (#194)

Computer Use on a KDE Plasma 6.6+ Wayland session could fall through to the "exotic - ydotool/x11-bridge" fallback (ending on XWayland) instead of the native kwin-portal-bridge. The mode gate in cu_mode_preamble.js keyed off XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP === "KDE" - an exact-match on a variable set by the display manager, whose value is not standardized (SDDM/GDM may report plasma, an absolute path, or nothing). The downstream DE detection in cu_linux_executor.js used the reliable XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP (Plasma sets it to KDE), so the two disagreed: diagnostics printed de=kde while the bridge was never selected. The gate now keys off XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP (case-insensitive substring) and accepts WAYLAND_DISPLAY as a Wayland signal, matching the downstream logic and the label the kwin-portal-bridge itself reads. The KWin >= 6.6 version probe still guards the route, so a non-KWin or too-old session correctly falls back.

Diagnostics surface the raw session env behind KDE routing

To make a future routing mismatch diagnosable without shell access, --diagnose now prints XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP next to XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, and the runtime [claude-cu] diagnostics: block adds a line with the raw XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP / XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP / XDG_SESSION_TYPE values plus the resolved kwin-mode. A de=kde with kwin-mode=false now reads as a self-explaining signature in claude-patches.log.
