 - Para pegar una imagen del clipboard local en la terminal remota, usá `Ctrl+V` por defecto (no `Cmd+V`).
 - `herdr --remote` puentea ese pegado copiando la imagen a un archivo temporal remoto y pegando el path resultante en la shell remota.
+- Si Herdr dice `remote herdr server must restart before this bridge can attach`, corré `hremote-stop <host> <session>` y después `hremote <host> <session>`.
+- `hremote-stop` usa `herdr session stop <session>` en el host remoto: detiene solo esa sesión nombrada, no el server default.
 - Una sesión SSH normal no puede leer el clipboard del escritorio local de macOS, así que ese flujo depende de Herdr corriendo del lado local.
 - Para archivos que no sean imágenes del clipboard, puede seguir haciendo falta un fallback separado de transferencia.

+If remote attach reports `remote herdr server must restart before this bridge can attach`, stop only the named remote session with `hremote-stop <host> <session>` and then reattach. This maps to `herdr session stop <session>` on the remote host; it does not stop the remote default server.
