Enables running Claude Desktop on Linux systems using a Nix flake.
This Nix flake provides a build script for running the Claude Desktop application on Linux, addressing the lack of an official Linux release. It overcomes the compatibility issues of the `claude-native-bindings` module by providing a reimplementation called `patchy-cnb` using NAPI-RS. This allows users to leverage Claude Desktop on NixOS and other Linux distributions with Nix installed, offering functionalities like MCP support, Ctrl+Alt+Space popup, and tray menu integration.
