Electron rewrites ~/.config/Claude for as long as the app runs, so removing the package and deleting the directory while it is open leaves the app running and the directory back within the same second, holding fresh Preferences and crash-reporter state. Driven end to end on an edge worker: remove via the menu with the app open left 11 processes and a recreated ~/.config/Claude; with the app quit first the directory stayed gone. The test stubs pkill so the suite cannot take a developer's own Claude with it, and asserts the remover reached for it.

Follows the ChatGPT flow: the Install > AI entry runs
omarchy-install-ai-claude in a floating terminal, which installs the
claude-desktop package (Anthropic's Linux desktop beta, repacked from
their Debian repo in omarchy-pkgs) and opens the app. Remove > AI
drops the package along with ~/.config/Claude and ~/.cache/Claude,
the Electron directories the desktop app owns, while keeping
~/.claude, ~/.claude.json, and ~/.cache/claude-cli-nodejs: those
belong to the Claude Code CLI, which ships in its own package and
survives this removal, just as the ChatGPT remover keeps the Codex
CLI.
The menu mark is a new U+E90E glyph in the Omarchy icon font, from
Simple Icons' Claude mark, so it reaches desktops through the next
omarchy-settings release.
