Changes since last release

Added

• fix_computer_use_linux.py sub-patch 13 (13a–13g): Fix computer-use tool descriptions for Linux. The upstream V7r() builder produces descriptions that tell the model "This computer is running macOS", reference Finder/bundle identifiers, and warn about allowlist gates that are bypassed on Linux. Seven sub-patches wrap key description strings in process.platform checks: (a) Lf allowlist gate suffix → empty on Linux, (b) request_access says "Linux" with correct file-manager info, (c–d) app identifiers use WM_CLASS not macOS bundle IDs, (e) open_application drops allowlist requirement, (f–g) screenshot removes allowlist references. Non-fatal — descriptions don't affect tool functionality.

Changed

• fix_computer_use_linux.py: Reordered GNOME Wayland screenshot cascade — gnome-screenshot now takes priority over gdbus (GNOME Shell D-Bus). gnome-screenshot is more widely available (works on Ubuntu GNOME where the D-Bus interface may be absent), so it should be tried first with gdbus as fallback.

Docs

• CLAUDE_BUILT_IN_MCP.md: Rewrote Computer Use tools table with verbatim upstream descriptions (v1.569.0) and platform-dependent notes showing what Linux patches change.
• CLAUDE.md: Updated Wayland GNOME screenshot tool order, sub-patch count (12→13), added sub-patch 13 row.
