Research direction
Start in apps/desktop and reproduce the reported flow: open t3, start a chat with Claude, and ask it to open a Chrome window with /chrome. Trace the /chrome entry point and compare the observed refusal with the expected ability to open, see, and navigate the window; done means that flow works reliably.
