-const HELP_MARKDOWN = `# How to Use Triple-C
-
-Triple-C (Claude-Code-Container) is a desktop application that runs Claude Code inside isolated Docker containers. Each project gets its own sandboxed environment with bind-mounted directories, so Claude only has access to the files you explicitly provide.
-
----
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-### Docker
-
-Triple-C requires a running Docker daemon. Install one of the following:
-
-| Platform | Option | Link |
-|----------|--------|------|
-| **Windows** | Docker Desktop | https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/windows-install/ |
-| **macOS** | Docker Desktop | https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/mac-install/ |
-| **Linux** | Docker Engine | https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ |
-| **Linux** | Docker Desktop (alternative) | https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/linux/ |
-
-After installation, verify Docker is running:
-
-\`\`\`bash
-docker info
-\`\`\`
-
-> **Windows note:** Docker Desktop must be running before launching Triple-C. The app communicates with Docker through the named pipe at \`//./pipe/docker_engine\`.
-
-> **Linux note:** Your user must have permission to access the Docker socket (\`/var/run/docker.sock\`). Either add your user to the \`docker\` group (\`sudo usermod -aG docker $USER\`, then log out and back in) or run Docker in rootless mode.
-
-### Claude Code Account
-
-You need access to Claude Code through one of:
-
-- **Anthropic account** — Sign up at https://claude.ai and use \`claude login\` (OAuth) inside the terminal
-- **AWS Bedrock** — An AWS account with Bedrock access and Claude models enabled
-- **Ollama** — A local or remote Ollama server running an Anthropic-compatible model (best-effort support)
-- **LiteLLM** — A LiteLLM proxy gateway providing access to 100+ model providers (best-effort support)
-
----
-
-## First Launch
-
-### 1. Get the Container Image
-
-When you first open Triple-C, go to the **Settings** tab in the sidebar. Under **Docker**, you'll see:
-
-- **Docker Status** — Should show "Connected" (green). If it shows "Not Available", make sure Docker is running.
-- **Image Status** — Will show "Not Found" on first launch.
-
-Choose an **Image Source**:
-
-| Source | Description | When to Use |
-|--------|-------------|-------------|
-| **Registry** | Pulls the pre-built image from \`repo.anhonesthost.net\` | Fastest setup — recommended for most users |
-| **Local Build** | Builds the image locally from the embedded Dockerfile | If you can't reach the registry, or want a custom build |
-| **Custom** | Use any Docker image you specify | Advanced — bring your own sandbox image |
-
-Click **Pull Image** (for Registry/Custom) or **Build Image** (for Local Build). A progress log will stream below the button. When complete, the status changes to "Ready" (green).
-
-### 2. Create Your First Project
-
-Switch to the **Projects** tab in the sidebar and click the **+** button.
-
-1. **Project Name** — Give it a meaningful name (e.g., "my-web-app").
-2. **Folders** — Click **Browse** to select a directory on your host machine. This directory will be mounted into the container at \`/workspace/<folder-name>\`. You can add multiple folders with the **+** button at the bottom of the folder list.
-3. Click **Add Project**.
-
-### 3. Start the Container
-
-Select your project in the sidebar and click **Start**. A progress modal appears showing real-time status as the container starts. The status dot changes from gray (stopped) to orange (starting) to green (running). The modal auto-closes on success.
-
-### 4. Open a Terminal
-
-Click the **Terminal** button to open an interactive terminal session. A new tab appears in the top bar and an xterm.js terminal loads in the main area.
-
-Claude Code launches automatically with \`--dangerously-skip-permissions\` inside the sandboxed container.
-
-### 5. Authenticate
-
-**Anthropic (OAuth) — default:**
-
-1. Type \`claude login\` or \`/login\` in the terminal.
-2. Claude prints an OAuth URL. Triple-C detects long URLs and shows a clickable toast at the top of the terminal — click **Open** to open it in your browser.
-3. Complete the login in your browser. The token is saved and persists across container stops and resets.
-
-**AWS Bedrock:**
-
-1. Stop the container first (settings can only be changed while stopped).
-2. In the project card, switch the backend to **Bedrock**.
-3. Expand the **Config** panel and fill in your AWS credentials (see AWS Bedrock Configuration below).
-4. Start the container again.
-
-**Ollama:**
-
-1. Stop the container first (settings can only be changed while stopped).
-2. In the project card, switch the backend to **Ollama**.
-3. Expand the **Config** panel and set the base URL of your Ollama server (defaults to \`http://host.docker.internal:11434\` for a local instance). Optionally set a model ID.
-4. Start the container again.
-
-**LiteLLM:**
-
-1. Stop the container first (settings can only be changed while stopped).
-2. In the project card, switch the backend to **LiteLLM**.
-3. Expand the **Config** panel and set the base URL of your LiteLLM proxy (defaults to \`http://host.docker.internal:4000\`). Optionally set an API key and model ID.
-4. Start the container again.

-## Project Management
-
-### Project Status
-
-Each project shows a colored status dot:
-
-| Color | Status | Meaning |
-|-------|--------|---------|
-| Gray | Stopped | Container is not running |
-| Orange | Starting / Stopping | Container is transitioning |
-| Green | Running | Container is active, ready for terminals |
-| Red | Error | Something went wrong (check error message) |
-
-### Project Actions
-
-Select a project in the sidebar to see its action buttons:
-
-| Button | When Available | What It Does |
-|--------|---------------|--------------|
-| **Start** | Stopped | Creates (if needed) and starts the container |
-| **Stop** | Running | Stops the container but preserves its state |
-| **Terminal** | Running | Opens a new Claude Code terminal session |
-| **Shell** | Running | Opens a bash login shell in the container (no Claude Code) |
-| **Files** | Running | Opens the file manager to browse, download, and upload files |
-| **Reset** | Stopped | Destroys and recreates the container from scratch |
-| **Config** | Always | Toggles the configuration panel |
-| **Remove** | Stopped | Deletes the project and its container (with confirmation) |
-
-### Renaming a Project
-
-Double-click the project name in the sidebar to rename it inline. Press **Enter** to confirm or **Escape** to cancel.
-
-### Container Lifecycle
-
-Containers use a **stop/start** model. When you stop a container, everything inside it is preserved — installed packages, modified files, downloaded tools. Starting it again resumes where you left off.
-
-**Reset** removes the container and creates a fresh one. However, your Claude Code configuration (including OAuth tokens from \`claude login\`) is stored in a separate Docker volume and survives resets.
-
-Only **Remove** deletes everything, including the config volume and any stored credentials.
-
-### Container Progress Feedback
-
-When starting, stopping, or resetting a container, a progress modal shows real-time status messages (e.g., "Setting up MCP network...", "Starting MCP containers...", "Creating container..."). If an error occurs, the modal displays the error with a **Close** button. A **Force Stop** option is available if the operation stalls. The modal auto-closes on success.
-
----
-
-## Project Configuration
-
-Click **Config** on a selected project to expand the configuration panel. Settings can only be changed when the container is **stopped** (an orange warning box appears if the container is running).
-
-### Mounted Folders
-
-Each project mounts one or more host directories into the container. The mount appears at \`/workspace/<mount-name>\` inside the container.
-
-- Click **Browse** ("...") to change the host path
-- Edit the mount name to control where it appears inside \`/workspace/\`
-- Click **+** to add more folders, or **x** to remove one
-- Mount names must be unique and use only letters, numbers, dashes, underscores, and dots
-
-### SSH Keys
-
-Specify the path to your SSH key directory (typically \`~/.ssh\`). Keys are mounted read-only and copied into the container with correct permissions. This enables \`git clone\` via SSH inside the container.
-
-### Git Configuration
-
-- **Git Name / Email** — Sets \`git config user.name\` and \`user.email\` inside the container.
-- **Git HTTPS Token** — A personal access token (e.g., from GitHub) for HTTPS git operations. Stored securely in your OS keychain — never written to disk in plaintext.
-
-### Allow Container Spawning
-
-When enabled, the host Docker socket is mounted into the container so Claude Code can create sibling containers (e.g., for running databases, test environments). This is **off by default** for security.
-
-> Toggling this requires stopping and restarting the container to take effect.
-
-### Mission Control
-
-Toggle **Mission Control** to integrate Flight Control — an AI-first development methodology — into the project. When enabled:
-
-- The Flight Control repository is automatically cloned into the container
-- Flight Control skills are installed to Claude Code's skill directory (\`~/.claude/skills/\`)
-- Project instructions are appended with Flight Control workflow guidance
-- The repository is symlinked at \`/workspace/mission-control\`
-
-Available skills include \`/mission\`, \`/flight\`, \`/leg\`, \`/agentic-workflow\`, \`/flight-debrief\`, \`/mission-debrief\`, \`/daily-briefing\`, and \`/init-project\`.
-
-> This setting can only be changed when the container is stopped. Toggling it triggers a container recreation on the next start.
-
-### Environment Variables
-
-Click **Edit** to open the environment variables modal. Add key-value pairs that will be injected into the container. Per-project variables override global variables with the same key.
-
-> Reserved prefixes (\`ANTHROPIC_\`, \`AWS_\`, \`GIT_\`, \`HOST_\`, \`CLAUDE_\`, \`TRIPLE_C_\`) are filtered out to prevent conflicts with internal variables.
-
-### Port Mappings
-
-Click **Edit** to map host ports to container ports. This is useful when Claude Code starts a web server or other service inside the container and you want to access it from your host browser.
-
-Each mapping specifies:
-- **Host Port** — The port on your machine (1-65535)
-- **Container Port** — The port inside the container (1-65535)
-- **Protocol** — TCP (default) or UDP
-
-### Claude Instructions
-
-Click **Edit** to write per-project instructions for Claude Code. These are written to \`~/.claude/CLAUDE.md\` inside the container and provide project-specific context. If you also have global instructions (in Settings), the global instructions come first, followed by the per-project instructions.
-
----
-
-## MCP Servers (Beta)
-
-Triple-C supports Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, which extend Claude Code with access to external tools and data sources. MCP servers are configured in a **global library** and **enabled per-project**.
-
-### How It Works
-
-There are two dimensions to MCP server configuration:
-
-| | **Manual** (no Docker image) | **Docker** (Docker image specified) |
-|---|---|---|
-| **Stdio** | Command runs inside the project container | Command runs in a separate MCP container via \`docker exec\` |
-| **HTTP** | Connects to a URL you provide | Runs in a separate container, reached by hostname on a shared Docker network |
-
-**Docker images are pulled automatically** if not already present when the project starts.
-
-### Accessing MCP Configuration
-
-Click the **MCP** tab in the sidebar to open the MCP server library. This is where you define all available MCP servers.
-
-### Adding an MCP Server
-
-1. Type a name in the input field and click **Add**.
-2. Expand the server card and configure it.
-
-The key decision is whether to set a **Docker Image**:
-- **With Docker image** — The MCP server runs in its own isolated container. Best for servers that need specific dependencies or system-level packages.
-- **Without Docker image** (manual) — The command runs directly inside your project container. Best for lightweight npx-based servers that just need Node.js.
-
-Then choose the **Transport Type**:
-- **Stdio** — The MCP server communicates over stdin/stdout. This is the most common type.
-- **HTTP** — The MCP server exposes an HTTP endpoint (streamable HTTP transport).
-
-### Configuration Examples
-
-#### Example 1: Filesystem Server (Stdio, Manual)
-
-A simple npx-based server that runs inside the project container. No Docker image needed since Node.js is already installed.
-
-| Field | Value |
-|-------|-------|
-| **Docker Image** | *(empty)* |
-| **Transport** | Stdio |
-| **Command** | \`npx\` |
-| **Arguments** | \`-y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /workspace\` |
-
-#### Example 2: GitHub Server (Stdio, Manual)
-
-Another npx-based server, with an environment variable for authentication.
-
-| Field | Value |
-|-------|-------|
-| **Docker Image** | *(empty)* |
-| **Transport** | Stdio |
-| **Command** | \`npx\` |
-| **Arguments** | \`-y @modelcontextprotocol/server-github\` |
-| **Environment Variables** | \`GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN\` = \`ghp_your_token\` |
-
-#### Example 3: Custom MCP Server (HTTP, Docker)
-
-An MCP server packaged as a Docker image that exposes an HTTP endpoint.
-
-| Field | Value |
-|-------|-------|
-| **Docker Image** | \`myregistry/my-mcp-server:latest\` |
-| **Transport** | HTTP |
-| **Container Port** | \`8080\` |
-| **Environment Variables** | \`API_KEY\` = \`your_key\` |
-
-#### Example 4: Database Server (Stdio, Docker)
-
-An MCP server that needs its own runtime environment, communicating over stdio.
-
-| Field | Value |
-|-------|-------|
-| **Docker Image** | \`mcp/postgres-server:latest\` |
-| **Transport** | Stdio |
-| **Command** | \`node\` |
-| **Arguments** | \`dist/index.js\` |
-| **Environment Variables** | \`DATABASE_URL\` = \`postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db\` |
-
-### Enabling MCP Servers Per-Project
-
-In a project's configuration panel (click **Config**), the **MCP Servers** section shows checkboxes for all globally defined servers. Toggle each server on or off for that project. Changes take effect on the next container start.
-
-### How Docker-Based MCP Works
-
-When a project with Docker-based MCP servers starts:
-
-1. Missing Docker images are **automatically pulled** (progress shown in the progress modal)
-2. A dedicated **bridge network** is created for the project (\`triple-c-net-{projectId}\`)
-3. Each enabled Docker MCP server gets its own container on that network
-4. The main project container is connected to the same network
-5. MCP server configuration is written to \`~/.claude.json\` inside the container
-
-**Networking**: Docker-based MCP containers are reached by their container name as a hostname (e.g., \`triple-c-mcp-{serverId}\`), not by \`localhost\`. Docker DNS resolves these names automatically on the shared bridge network.
-
-**Stdio + Docker**: The project container uses \`docker exec\` to communicate with the MCP container over stdin/stdout. This automatically enables Docker socket access on the project container.
-
-**HTTP + Docker**: The project container connects to the MCP container's HTTP endpoint using the container hostname and port (e.g., \`http://triple-c-mcp-{serverId}:3000/mcp\`).
-
-**Manual (no Docker image)**: Stdio commands run directly inside the project container. HTTP URLs connect to wherever you point them (could be an external service or something running on the host).
-
-### Configuration Change Detection
-
-MCP server configuration is tracked via SHA-256 fingerprints stored as Docker labels. If you add, remove, or modify MCP servers for a project, the container is automatically recreated on the next start to apply the new configuration. The container filesystem is snapshotted first, so installed packages are preserved.

-
-## AWS Bedrock Configuration
-
-To use Claude via AWS Bedrock instead of Anthropic's API, switch the backend to **Bedrock** on the project card.
-
-### Authentication Methods
-
-| Method | Fields | Use Case |
-|--------|--------|----------|
-| **Keys** | Access Key ID, Secret Access Key, Session Token (optional) | Direct credentials — simplest setup |
-| **Profile** | AWS Profile name | Uses \`~/.aws/config\` and \`~/.aws/credentials\` on the host |
-| **Token** | Bearer Token | Temporary bearer token authentication |
-
-### Additional Bedrock Settings
-
-- **AWS Region** — Required. The region where your Bedrock models are deployed (e.g., \`us-east-1\`).
-- **Model ID** — Optional. Override the default Claude model (e.g., \`anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-20250514-v1:0\`).
-
-### Global AWS Defaults
-
-In **Settings > AWS Configuration**, you can set defaults that apply to all Bedrock projects:
-
-- **AWS Config Path** — Path to your \`~/.aws\` directory. Click **Detect** to auto-find it.
-- **Default Profile** — Select from profiles found in your AWS config.
-- **Default Region** — Fallback region for projects that don't specify one.
-
-Per-project settings always override these global defaults.
-
----
-
-## Ollama Configuration
-
-To use Claude Code with a local or remote Ollama server, switch the backend to **Ollama** on the project card.
-
-### Settings
-
-- **Base URL** — The URL of your Ollama server. Defaults to \`http://host.docker.internal:11434\`, which reaches a locally running Ollama instance from inside the container. For a remote server, use its IP or hostname (e.g., \`http://192.168.1.100:11434\`).
-- **Model ID** — Optional. Override the model to use (e.g., \`qwen3.5:27b\`).
-
-### How It Works
-
-Triple-C sets \`ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL\` to point Claude Code at your Ollama server instead of Anthropic's API. The \`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN\` is set to \`ollama\` (required by Claude Code but not used for actual authentication).
-
-> **Note:** Ollama support is best-effort. Claude Code is designed for Anthropic models, so some features (tool use, extended thinking, prompt caching, etc.) may not work as expected with non-Anthropic models.
-
----
-
-## LiteLLM Configuration
-
-To use Claude Code through a LiteLLM proxy gateway, switch the backend to **LiteLLM** on the project card. LiteLLM supports 100+ model providers (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, and more) through a single proxy.
-
-### Settings
-
-- **Base URL** — The URL of your LiteLLM proxy. Defaults to \`http://host.docker.internal:4000\` for a locally running proxy.
-- **API Key** — Optional. The API key for your LiteLLM proxy, if authentication is required. Stored securely in your OS keychain.
-- **Model ID** — Optional. Override the model to use.
-
-### How It Works
-
-Triple-C sets \`ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL\` to point Claude Code at your LiteLLM proxy. If an API key is provided, it is set as \`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN\`.
-
-> **Note:** LiteLLM support is best-effort. Claude Code is designed for Anthropic models, so some features (tool use, extended thinking, prompt caching, etc.) may not work as expected when routing to non-Anthropic models through the proxy.
-
----
-
-## Settings
-
-Access global settings via the **Settings** tab in the sidebar.
-
-### Docker Settings
-
-- **Docker Status** — Connection status to the Docker daemon.
-- **Image Source** — Where to get the sandbox container image (Registry, Local Build, or Custom).
-- **Pull / Build Image** — Download or build the image. Progress streams in real time.
-- **Refresh** — Re-check Docker and image status.
-
-### Container Timezone
-
-Set the timezone for all containers (IANA format, e.g., \`America/New_York\`, \`Europe/London\`, \`UTC\`). Auto-detected from your host on first launch. This affects scheduled task timing inside containers.
-
-### Global Claude Instructions
-
-Instructions applied to **all** projects. Written to \`~/.claude/CLAUDE.md\` in every container, before any per-project instructions.
-
-### Global Environment Variables
-
-Environment variables applied to **all** project containers. Per-project variables with the same key take precedence.
-
-### Updates
-
-- **Current Version** — The installed version of Triple-C.
-- **Auto-check** — Toggle automatic update checks (every 24 hours).
-- **Check now** — Manually check for updates.
-
-When an update is available, a pulsing **Update** button appears in the top bar. Click it to see release notes and download links.
-
----
-
-## Terminal Features
-
-### Multiple Sessions
-
-You can open multiple terminal sessions (even for the same project). Each session gets its own tab in the top bar. Click a tab to switch, or click the **x** on a tab to close it. Tabs show the project name, with a "(bash)" suffix for shell sessions.
-
-### Bash Shell Sessions
-
-In addition to Claude Code terminals, you can open a plain **bash login shell** in any running container by clicking the **Shell** button. This is useful for manual inspection, package installation, debugging, or running commands that don't need Claude Code.
-
-### URL Detection
-
-When Claude Code prints a long URL (e.g., during \`claude login\`), Triple-C detects it and shows a toast notification at the top of the terminal with an **Open** button. Clicking it opens the URL in your default browser. The toast auto-dismisses after 30 seconds.
-
-Shorter URLs in terminal output are also clickable directly.
-
-### Clipboard Support (OSC 52)
-
-Programs inside the container can copy text to your host clipboard. When a container program uses \`xclip\`, \`xsel\`, or \`pbcopy\`, the text is transparently forwarded to your host clipboard via OSC 52 escape sequences. No additional configuration is required — this works out of the box.
-
-### Image Paste
-
-You can paste images from your clipboard into the terminal (Ctrl+V / Cmd+V). The image is uploaded to the container as \`/tmp/clipboard_<timestamp>.png\` and the file path is injected into the terminal input so Claude Code can reference it. A toast notification confirms the upload.
-
-### Jump to Current
-
-When you scroll up in the terminal to review previous output, a **Jump to Current** button appears in the bottom-right corner. Click it to scroll back to the latest output.
-
-### File Manager
-
-Click the **Files** button on a running project to open the file manager modal. You can:
-
-- **Browse** the container filesystem starting from \`/workspace\`, with breadcrumb navigation
-- **Download** any file to your host machine via the download button on each file entry
-- **Upload** files from your host into the current container directory
-- **Refresh** the directory listing at any time
-
-The file manager shows file names, sizes, and modification dates.
-
-### Terminal Rendering
-
-The terminal uses WebGL for hardware-accelerated rendering of the active tab. Inactive tabs fall back to canvas rendering to conserve GPU resources. The terminal automatically resizes when you resize the window.
-
----
-
-## Scheduled Tasks (Inside the Container)
-
-Once inside a running container terminal, you can set up recurring or one-time tasks using \`triple-c-scheduler\`. Tasks run as separate Claude Code sessions.
-
-### Create a Recurring Task
-
-\`\`\`bash
-triple-c-scheduler add --name "daily-review" --schedule "0 9 * * *" --prompt "Review open issues and summarize"
-\`\`\`
-
-### Create a One-Time Task
-
-\`\`\`bash
-triple-c-scheduler add --name "migrate-db" --at "2026-03-05 14:00" --prompt "Run database migrations"
-\`\`\`
-
-One-time tasks automatically remove themselves after execution.
-
-### Manage Tasks
-
-\`\`\`bash
-triple-c-scheduler list                    # List all tasks
-triple-c-scheduler enable --id abc123      # Enable a task
-triple-c-scheduler disable --id abc123     # Disable a task
-triple-c-scheduler remove --id abc123      # Delete a task
-triple-c-scheduler run --id abc123         # Trigger a task immediately
-triple-c-scheduler logs --id abc123        # View logs for a task
-triple-c-scheduler logs --tail 20          # View last 20 log entries (all tasks)
-triple-c-scheduler notifications           # View completion notifications
-triple-c-scheduler notifications --clear   # Clear notifications
-\`\`\`
-
-### Cron Schedule Format
-
-Standard 5-field cron: \`minute hour day-of-month month day-of-week\`
-
-| Example | Meaning |
-|---------|---------|
-| \`*/30 * * * *\` | Every 30 minutes |
-| \`0 9 * * 1-5\` | 9:00 AM on weekdays |
-| \`0 */2 * * *\` | Every 2 hours |
-| \`0 0 1 * *\` | Midnight on the 1st of each month |
-
-### Working Directory
-
-By default, tasks run in \`/workspace\`. Use \`--working-dir\` to specify a different directory:
-
-\`\`\`bash
-triple-c-scheduler add --name "test" --schedule "0 */6 * * *" --prompt "Run tests" --working-dir /workspace/my-project
-\`\`\`

-## What's Inside the Container
-
-The sandbox container (Ubuntu 24.04) comes pre-installed with:
-
-| Tool | Version | Purpose |
-|------|---------|---------|
-| Claude Code | Latest | AI coding assistant (the tool being sandboxed) |
-| Node.js | 22 LTS | JavaScript/TypeScript development |
-| pnpm | Latest | Fast Node.js package manager |
-| Python | 3.12 | Python development |
-| uv | Latest | Fast Python package manager |
-| ruff | Latest | Python linter/formatter |
-| Rust | Stable | Rust development (via rustup) |
-| Docker CLI | Latest | Container management (when spawning is enabled) |
-| git | Latest | Version control |
-| GitHub CLI (gh) | Latest | GitHub integration |
-| AWS CLI | v2 | AWS services and Bedrock |
-| ripgrep | Latest | Fast code search |
-| build-essential | — | C/C++ compiler toolchain |
-| openssh-client | — | SSH for git and remote access |
-
-The container also includes **clipboard shims** (\`xclip\`, \`xsel\`, \`pbcopy\`) that forward copy operations to the host via OSC 52, and an **audio shim** (\`rec\`, \`arecord\`) for future voice mode support.
-
-You can install additional tools at runtime with \`sudo apt install\`, \`pip install\`, \`npm install -g\`, etc. Installed packages persist across container stops (but not across resets).
-
----
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Docker is "Not Available"
-
-- **Is Docker running?** Start Docker Desktop or the Docker daemon (\`sudo systemctl start docker\`).
-- **Permissions?** On Linux, ensure your user is in the \`docker\` group or the socket is accessible.
-- **Custom socket path?** If your Docker socket is not at the default location, set it in Settings. The app expects \`/var/run/docker.sock\` on Linux/macOS or \`//./pipe/docker_engine\` on Windows.
-
-### Image is "Not Found"
-
-- Click **Pull Image** or **Build Image** in Settings > Docker.
-- If pulling fails, check your network connection and whether you can reach the registry.
-- Try switching to **Local Build** as an alternative.
-
-### Container Won't Start
-
-- Check that the Docker image is "Ready" in Settings.
-- Verify that the mounted folder paths exist on your host.
-- Look at the error message displayed in the progress modal.
-
-### OAuth Login URL Not Opening
-
-- Triple-C detects long URLs printed by \`claude login\` and shows a toast with an **Open** button.
-- If the toast doesn't appear, try scrolling up in the terminal — the URL may have already been printed.
-- You can also manually copy the URL from the terminal output and paste it into your browser.
-
-### File Permission Issues
-
-- Triple-C automatically remaps the container user's UID/GID to match your host user, so files created inside the container should have the correct ownership on your host.
-- If you see permission errors, try resetting the container (stop, then click **Reset**).
-
-### Settings Won't Save
-
-- Most project settings can only be changed when the container is **stopped**. Stop the container first, make your changes, then start it again.
-- Some changes (like toggling Docker access, Mission Control, or changing mounted folders) trigger an automatic container recreation on the next start.
-
-### MCP Containers Not Starting
-
-- Ensure the Docker image for the MCP server exists (pull it first if needed).
-- Check that Docker socket access is available (stdio + Docker MCP servers auto-enable this).
-- Try resetting the project container to force a clean recreation.`;
