Effects and persistence

Hands the current conversation over to Claude Code Desktop.

Cautions

Requires macOS or x64 Windows and a Claude subscription; Linux has no Desktop app. Check that the target Desktop installation can access the working repository before continuing edits. From the shell, claude --desktop (v2.1.285+) opens the current directory in the Desktop app without starting a terminal session; add --continue or --resume <session-id> to open that session instead. There --resume takes only a session ID, and no prompt or other flags apart from --verbose and the --debug flags are accepted.
