DESCRIPTION="Claude Desktop - Anthropic's Claude app: Chat, Cowork, Code (prebuilt binary)"
HOMEPAGE="https://claude.ai/download"
# Repackage of the official Debian/Ubuntu (beta) .deb from Anthropic's apt
# repository. amd64 only (upstream also ships arm64). The .deb lays files out
# under /usr (usr/lib/claude-desktop = the Electron bundle, usr/bin symlink,
# usr/share/applications + hicolor icons), which we install verbatim.
SRC_URI="https://downloads.claude.ai/claude-desktop/apt/stable/pool/main/c/claude-desktop/claude-desktop_${PV}_amd64.deb -> ${P}_amd64.deb"
LICENSE="Anthropic-Claude-Terms"
SLOT="0"
KEYWORDS="~amd64"
RESTRICT="strip mirror bindist"
QA_PREBUILT="usr/lib/claude-desktop/*"
# Debian Depends of the .deb mapped to Gentoo, plus the usual Electron/
# Chromium runtime set (cf. dev-util/kiro-bin). Cowork's VM features
# additionally want app-emulation/qemu + KVM group membership at runtime;
# those are optional and intentionally not hard deps (chat/code work without).
