## Summary - restrict generic Linux desktop-entry discovery to file managers, text editors, and terminal emulators - use the standard XDG `Categories` values `FileManager`, `TextEditor`, and `TerminalEmulator` - keep unrelated desktop applications out of BB's Open in/Open with menus ## Root cause PR #403 added generic Linux desktop-application discovery for workspace open targets. It currently includes every visible `.desktop` entry with `Type=Application`, an `Exec` command, and neither `Hidden=true` nor `NoDisplay=true`. As a result, BB's Open in/Open with menus can contain nearly every installed desktop application on Linux, including media players, settings utilities, messaging clients, and other software that is not a useful workspace target. This change additionally requires a relevant standard XDG category: `FileManager`, `TextEditor`, or `TerminalEmulator`. Existing explicit BB launch adapters remain unaffected. ## Validation - `pnpm exec turbo run typecheck test --filter=@bb/local-open-targets --force` - `git diff --check` > AGENT GENERATED
