Problem Statement

When working with local HTML files in the Claude Code preview panel, changes made to the file on disk are not reflected in the panel after edits — even after the file is fully rewritten. The panel has no hard-refresh or cache-clear button, so the only way to see the updated content is to open the file in an external browser and do a manual Cmd+Shift+R there. This breaks the feedback loop when iterating on local file changes with Claude.

Proposed Solution

Add a hard-refresh button (or keyboard shortcut) to the preview panel that forces a full reload from disk, bypassing any cached version. Ideally this would trigger automatically when Claude writes to the file being previewed, or at minimum be accessible via a visible reload icon in the panel toolbar.
