--yes alone is not consent to delete recorded sessions, so it refuses while a local server is installed unless --purge-local or --keep-config is given. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

A relaunch for the uninstall skips applying a pending update on exit: it would replace the bundle being removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The admin prompt re-checks the link still resolves into the bundle: a link repointed after the scan passes the script's readlink guard. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The mode is read before App is constructed: its telemetry facade would otherwise create the device id and spool under the config root the uninstall removes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Issue
#1786requirements are covered. The macOS app adds the “Uninstall kcap…” action, shows local-session deletion warnings, relaunches in uninstall mode, removes app links and support files, and moves the bundle to the Trash.UninstallCommandremoves local-server state before config cleanup, refuses busy agents unless--forceis used, removes applicable PATH links, and preserves config after local-removal or registry failures. Tests cover the app flow, CLI rules, link handling, and failure cases.

src/Capacitor.Cli.Core/Setup/KcapLinkRemover.cs:14-33
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winPropagate link-inspection failures without aborting CLI cleanup.
KcapLinkRemoverconverts inspection errors tofalseornull. An install-owned symlink can therefore disappear fromFind()and produce noKcapLinkFailure.MacAppRemovalthen returns an empty list, so the app moves its bundle to the Trash while the symlink remains. Let the helper propagate these errors so the app's existing failure gate stops the removal. Catch them at the CLI boundaries sokcap uninstallreports the failure, continues cleanup, and returns its existing error status.Suggested fix

Closes #1786 — AI-4153
What & why
Dragging kcap.app to the Trash leaves its LaunchAgents, the local server, a dangling
kcaplink and every harness hook behind, andkcap uninstalldeleted the local server's data while its service kept running.kcap uninstallnow refuses while agents run (--force), removes the local server first (--purge-localrequired with--yes), and removeskcaplinks to itself. macOS gains "Uninstall kcap…": a confirmation that warns about local data, then a relaunch as--uninstallthat builds none of the normal app, runs the CLI, removes its links (admin prompt if needed) and trashes the bundle.Where to look
MacAppRemoval: the rootrmre-checks the link still resolves into the bundle.UninstallCommand: local removal runs before anything else, and any failure keeps~/.config/kcap.Verification
