A new contextual tip tells iOS developers that Claude Code Desktop gives each session its own iOS Simulator pane

What

A new contextual tip ("desktop-ios-simulator") can appear when Claude Code detects you're working on iOS app development. It tells you that Claude Code Desktop (the desktop app) gives each session its own iOS Simulator pane, where Claude can test, fix, and recheck the app itself.

The tip only shows up under specific conditions: you're on macOS, the plugin/desktop feature is enabled, the account isn't under HIPAA restrictions, and Claude has classified the session's intent as iOS app development. On top of that, it's currently behind a feature flag (tengu_magical_pixel) that defaults to off, so most users won't see it yet.

Why

This surfaces a useful desktop-only capability to the people most likely to benefit from it, without showing it to everyone or on platforms where it doesn't apply.
