 - Bumped the client/server protocol version to 15 for socket API placement mutation event and response compatibility.
 
 ### Fixed
+- Unix local Herdr clients no longer treat empty bracketed paste as a clipboard-image bridge; `herdr --remote` keeps using it for local-desktop image paste over SSH. (#986)
 - Plain PageUp/PageDown now reach primary-screen pager apps such as `less -X` and Git diff when they enter application cursor mode, while shell transcripts still use Herdr pane scrollback. (#953)
 - `prefix+e` scrollback editor panes now open on Windows without trying to run `/bin/sh`; Windows uses `VISUAL`, then `EDITOR`, then `notepad.exe` as the fallback editor. (#914)
 - `herdr pane split --current` now resolves to the calling Herdr pane instead of the UI-focused pane when run inside a pane. (#902)

 `last_pane` switches back to the last focused pane across workspaces and tabs. It is unset by default because the tmux-style pane binding `prefix+l` is already used for pane-right focus.
 
-`remote_image_paste` is only active in `herdr --remote`. It is the local-client shortcut that sends a local clipboard image to the remote pane. Set it to an empty string to disable the raw-key shortcut; terminal paste-image signals still work when the outer terminal sends them.

 Key strings accept plain keys, modifier combinations such as `ctrl+a`, `shift+n`, `alt+1`, `cmd+k`, and special keys such as `enter`, `tab`, `esc`, `left`, `right`, `up`, and `down`. Named punctuation such as `minus`, `comma`, `ampersand`, `plus`, and `backtick` is also accepted. Plain direct printable keys such as `n` are unsafe because they intercept typing; use `prefix+n` unless you intentionally want a direct binding. The `navigate_workspace_*` and `navigate_pane_*` fields are navigate-mode-only and may use plain keys such as `j` or `k`; they must not use `prefix+`, `esc`, `enter`, `tab`, `shift+tab`, `left`, `right`, or unmodified `1` through `9`. Left and right arrows are permanent aliases for pane-left and pane-right navigation. These navigate-mode shortcuts are independent from general action bindings such as `focus_pane_down = "prefix+j"`; when both use the same key, the navigate-mode shortcut wins while navigate mode is open. Alt, Cmd/Super, and punctuation with modifiers depend on your terminal and tmux settings.
