Major changes: - Switch from Windows installer to macOS DMG (more reliable extraction) - Replace Rust native bindings (patchy-cnb) with simple JavaScript stubs - Update to Claude Desktop v1.1.1200 - Add Linux platform detection for Claude Code - Fix tray icon theme detection for dark/light modes - Simplify build process (no Rust compilation needed) The previous Rust-based approach required compilation and had issues with the tray menu patches injecting 'await' outside async contexts, causing SyntaxError on startup. The JS stub approach matches what claude-desktop-debian uses and is simpler to maintain.
