Subject: [PATCH] dnks: FIX IN REPONSE TO SYMBOL SWITCHING CAUSING A
 AsyncVNCClient.connect ERROR
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

🟢 piker/brokers/ib/_util.py - New utility script added
🛠️ vnc_click_hack -> Refactored to initialize VNC client outside context
🛠️ client connection -> Simplified by removing crash handler context
🛠️ moved client movement -> Now inside async with block for proper cleanup
🛠️ added comments -> Clarified screen position and hotkey actions
