[Feature Request] Claude Code Desktop application for Linux

Bug Description
Subject: Feature Request: Claude Code Desktop for Linux + Dispatch on Mobile

Hi Anthropic team,

I'm a .NET / C# developer working primarily on Linux (self-hosted services, ASP.NET Core, etc.) and I wanted to share some feedback:

Could you please consider releasing a native Claude Code Desktop application for Linux?

Currently, Claude Code is available as a CLI tool, which is great — but a desktop GUI app (similar to the macOS/Windows versions) would significantly improve the developer experience for Linux users.

Many developers in the .NET ecosystem, DevOps engineers, and self-hosted infrastructure folks run Linux as their primary OS. Having a first-class desktop experience on Linux would make Claude Code much more accessible and competitive with other AI coding assistants.

What would be ideal:

• A native .deb / .rpm / AppImage / Flatpak package
• Feature parity with the macOS and Windows desktop apps
• Proper system tray integration and notifications

Additionally, I've noticed that while Dispatch works in the mobile app, it requires Claude Desktop to be connected in order to function. Since there is no Claude Desktop available for Linux, I'm completely unable to use Dispatch on mobile — even though the feature itself is there. A Linux Desktop app would directly unblock this use case as well.

Thank you for building such a great product. I hope Linux desktop support is on the roadmap!

Best regards
