Cline Desktop 0.0.6: queued-message list and a persistent update indicator
Cline's desktop app shows queued messages in a collapsible list you can edit, send now, or delete per turn, and keeps a sidebar indicator for a downloaded update after the toast is dismissed. The rest is launch-flash, header/sidebar layout and settings-copy cleanup.

- Queued messages appear in a collapsible list above the composer with a count; expand to edit, send-now, or delete individual queued turns.
- Sidebar update indicator persists after a downloaded update once the toast is dismissed, shows the new version with one-click restart, and surfaces restart failures instead of failing silently.
- No appearance flash on launch — the app paints in the saved or system light/dark theme before the first frame.
- Header and sidebar show the full workspace name and git branch, lay out correctly on narrow windows, and a transient git lookup no longer resets a valid branch name to "no git".
- Collapsed-sidebar settings layout: compact width, left-aligned navigation, stacked account details.
- Auto-update setting renamed to "Keep CLI up to date", clarifying it governs the
clineterminal command, not the app (which updates separately). - Toggle switches use a solid accent color when on.
