Anthropic's Claude Design requires using Chrome or Edge for "Linking Code from your computer" when setting up a new design system.

This very much smells like the File System Access API. :/

Preemptively adding the dependency

Yes, as far as I know.

Allesio, how usable is the product without the "Link code from your computer" feature?

I can't seem to find a way to link the code from the computer , so I'd say this definitely prevents this option. Sure, one could link from GitHub, but that's different.

I'm removing the needs-diagnosis based on this confirmation. Please feel free to add it back if there's more investigate we should still do atm.

Taking out contact-complete because this one needs us to implement a solution and isn't dependent on Anthropic.
