Windows: desktop app (WSL) tries to open projects from local pc #13089

Description

I'm currently using OC desktop app and connecting to WSL through localhost.
When I try to open a new project, it tries to open projects from my local pc (Windows) rather than the one in remote.
Ideally, I'd like the app to open a search ui rather than the native one.

Plugins

None

OpenCode version

OpenCode Desktop v1.1.56

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open OpenCode Desktop
  2. Connect to remote wsl.
  3. Try to open a new project through the sidebar + button.

    I''ll take a shot at it.

    Tl;dr the "isLocal()" should only be limited to the currently spawned sidecar, rather than to localhost, 127.0.0.1

    This was fixed with the new WSL integration but it might be nice if we can get the VSCode's style of opening projects.
