Claude Desktop Extension

# Python Dependencies Management This directory contains specialized requirements files for different environments and purposes of the Claude Desktop Extension Python components. ## Files Structure - `base.txt`: Common dependencies used across all environments - `windows.txt`: Windows-specific dependencies (includes base) - `wsl.txt`: WSL-specific dependencies (includes base) - `dev.txt`: Additional dependencies for development and testing - `api.txt`: Optional API integration dependencies ## Usage ### Basic Installation For most users, simply install from the main requirements file: ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt ``` This will automatically install the base dependencies and platform-specific packages. ### Development Environment For development work, use: ```bash pip install -r requirements/dev.txt ``` ### API Integration For API integration features: ```bash pip install -r requirements/api.txt ``` ### Specific Environments #### Windows-only Installation ```bash pip install -r requirements/windows.txt ``` #### WSL Installation ```bash pip install -r requirements/wsl.txt ``` ## Dependency Management When adding new dependencies: 1. Add common dependencies to `base.txt` 2. Add OS-specific dependencies to the appropriate file 3. Add development tools to `dev.txt` 4. Update the main `requirements.txt` if needed ## Notes - The Python bridge components are primarily used for cross-environment integration between Windows and WSL - Platform-specific conditional dependencies use the `; sys_platform == 'win32'` syntax for automatic platform detection
