Package Information

Description:
Linux port of Anthropic's Claude Desktop with Cowork (local agent) mode. It downloads the official macOS Claude Desktop archive from Anthropic's CDN at build time, extracts and patches the bundled app.asar to run on a Linux Electron runtime, and ships it with a bundled Electron 41 plus a launcher. Claude Desktop itself is proprietary Anthropic software; this package only provides the compatibility layer (stubs, patches and launcher) from the johnzfitch/claude-cowork-linux project.
