fix(desktop): friendly already-running guard for clawcodex desktop - #808
Merged
Conversation
A second `clawcodex desktop` died mid-boot on vite's raw 'Port 5174 is already in use' stack trace. Probe the dev renderer port before launching and explain the situation instead: the app is almost certainly already running — switch to its window or quit it. --no-dev launches skip the guard (they don't bind the dev port).

--no-devlaunches skip the guard (they don't bind the dev port). Covered by a socket-listener test (guard trips while held, clears when released, subcommand exits 1 with the message).🤖 Generated with Claude Code
