  "works": "Official 2.1.46 Linux .deb (checksum verified) run offline with a fresh first launch, configured through its own settings screens, and driven with the official MCP TypeScript SDK client. Both servers started (core 2.1.46 with 10 tools; desktop 2.1.46 with 9 browser tools on Linux). Reads with non-ASCII and spaced names, view_image, apply_patch add/update/move/delete, command batches with per-command exit codes and an interactive terminal session via write_stdin all worked. Folder limits held (outside links, parent-folder steps and outside absolute paths refused), the Read-only switch removed write and command tools live, the command allowlist ran only exact matches and refused chaining and redirection, and a token for one surface did not open the other.",
  "breaks": "Main job still not testable: use from ChatGPT needs a ChatGPT account with Developer mode, a tunnel and an OpenAI API key. Confirmed: relative paths behave inconsistently (read resolved against the last subfolder; apply_patch reported success but created a nested duplicate folder). New: code-mode exec reports ordinary runtime errors as CODE_MODE_PARSE_ERROR; apply_patch Add File on an existing large file replaced it without warning; in a command batch an explicit exit ends the shell so later commands don't run, and the top-line exit code is misleading; the secrets shield hid common key formats but not every credential format the release notes suggest it covers; the README says only Windows enables desktop permissions at first launch, but Linux did too. Every result carries a long identity notice when the caller isn't a known ChatGPT chat.",
