Web Deployment (ttyd)

• Image paste support: intercept browser clipboard image on Ctrl+V, upload blob to server, save as temp file. Claude Code already handles Ctrl+V as image paste — just needs the image on the filesystem
• Right-click context menu for copy/paste in web terminal
• Multiple terminal tabs: the workspace terminal already runs inside a shell — leverage this for tabbed terminal sessions (new tab, close tab, switch tabs)
