What was wrong
The top-level documentation identifies Linux as supported, but it does not explain how the AppImage becomes a clickable desktop application or make the boundary between a desktop install, an
npxserver, and an enrolled execution machine explicit. FUSE, systemd, stale-service, and cleanup guidance is scattered or maintainer-focused, which makes a successful Add machine enrollment easy to mistake for a UI installation.What changed
npx bb-appand Add machine installations.203/EXECdiagnosis, headless lingering guidance, browser-app guidance, and safe replacement/removal steps.bb-apppackage guide, and the desktop maintainer guide.This is documentation-only; there are no protocol, runtime, or CLI changes.
