desktop_set_window_jumplist: custom taskbar right-click tasks (per-window wiki-auth toggle for pup)

by adom

Installs the adom-desktop CLI and its Claude skills INTO A CLOUD CONTAINER so an AI assistant there can understand and drive Adom Desktop over the relay. This is the container side, NOT the app itself. The Adom Desktop app is the signed Windows installer under Download below: run THAT on the PC you want the AI to control. Rule of thumb: pkg install here (in your Linux container), Download there (on your Windows PC). Once installed, the AI can drive file transfer, screenshots, notifications, KiCa

Ask

Add a native Jump List verb so a bridge can put custom tasks on a window's taskbar right-click menu: desktop_set_window_jumplist {appId | hwnd | titleContains, tasks: [{title, iconPath, command, args}]} Backed by the Win32 ICustomDestinationList / AddUserTasks COM API. Tasks launch "command" (default: AD's bundled adom-desktop-cli.exe) with "args".

Use case (pup)

pup drives wiki windows in two modes — anonymous/public vs logged-in (wikiView:"authed"). The AI picks the mode, so the user wants to flip it themselves. With this verb pup adds per-window tasks to the taskbar right-click menu:

"Log this window into the wiki"
"Switch to public view" Clicking one launches adom-desktop-cli with args that call back to pup to flip THAT session's view. Each pup window already carries its own per-session AUMID (Adom.Pup.), so per-window task lists work.

Notes / dependencies

Jump lists are per-AUMID and set via COM from a live process; icons come from iconPath.
Tasks are actions (launch commands), not live toggles — Windows won't render a checkmark state. So pup uses two tasks (or relabels on flip), not a checkbox.
The jumplist HEADER icon (currently shows chrome.exe's icon, not the Adom mark) is the SAME root cause as #207 (unregistered per-session AUMIDs) — fixing #207 fixes the header icon here too; this verb is only about the task ITEMS.

Acceptance

desktop_set_window_jumplist {titleContains:"(session: x", tasks:[{title:"Test task", iconPath:"...", command:"...cli.exe", args:"..."}]} → right-clicking that window's taskbar button shows "Test task".
Clicking it launches the command with the args.
Clearing (tasks:[]) removes them.

Context: pasted to the AD build thread already; filing for tracking. Companion to #207.
