Problem Statement
I want to monitor multiple Claude instances at once, and I want to be able to cross reference things, etc. Hard to list all the things that I use split-screen for. I use it all the time in other apps for all kids of reasons.
Proposed Solution
I'd like to be able to have multiple OS-level windows of the claude desktop app open at once, so I can splitscreen them, have them on different monitors, etc.
Alternative Solutions
I've tried using multiple terminal windows, which works, but for many things the claude desktop app is nicer.
I've tried using claude.ai in the browser but it obviously can't access local folders etc
Priority
Medium - Would be very helpful
