Where's Christoph?

@David-Healey Given how it sounds like you use Claude, might not be too different.

If you only use Claude to propose/write/update code that you then read and edit, doing it in the browser works fine.

But working in a browser means your agent is running just in the repo, on an isolated cloud instance.

Using the desktop app (or the CLI as I prefer) is all local, so Claude can:

• launch HISE itself, run the hise-cli, Projucer, pluginval, auval, even launch a DAW
• run the local MCP for API lookups
• run the edit/recompile/screenshot loop with the HISE REST server for UI tweaks
• work in any folder on your machine, not just the project repo: the samples, AppData folder, etc.
• use your existing local credentials so you don't have to put duplicates in the browser
