Desktop: stealth update relaunch does not restore Remote Control on restored sessions

Desktop app: stealth update relaunch does not restore Remote Control on restored sessions

Environment: Claude desktop app (macOS, arm64), app 2.26454.2 → 2.31226.0, bundled Claude Code 2.1.293. Session was a local Code-tab session with Remote Control on.

What happened: The desktop app applied a staged update by quietly quitting and relaunching after an idle timeout. It stopped all five running sessions and restored them on relaunch, but the Remote Control link of the session that had it on was not re-established. From the phone this looked like the session timing out; it stayed unreachable for ~2.5 h until the toolbar switch was flipped again.

Expected: A session that had Remote Control on before the stealth relaunch should come back with Remote Control on.

19:36:10 [info] [remote-control] bridge_state: "connected"

Between 08:29 and 17:11 there were no bridge_state changes, so the link was healthy until the relaunch.

Notes: "Connect new sessions to Remote Control" was unset at the time. Whether setting it would cover sessions restored by a relaunch is unclear from the behaviour; either way the pre-relaunch per-session state seems the right thing to restore.
