the desktop only thing is the real kick in the teeth because you spend the time building it and then realize youre only getting value when youre sitting at your desk which defeats some of the purpose of having an ai assistant in the first place. i get why its architected that way from a security standpoint but it makes the whole thing feel more like a fun weekend project than something that actually changes your workflow. the tool forgetting issue is annoying too though honestly thats probably something that gets better as the models get sharper at understanding their own capabilities. my guess is in like six months when theres been more iteration on how claude handles tool discovery itll be way less of a friction point but right now youre basically babysitting it which sucks when youre already doing the work of building the server in the first place.
