Additional Information

I have chatted with an agent and they said to check permissions which were the same as the rest of simplisafe or my computer settings as far as I know

extent analysis

TL;DR

Check the project creation process for potential permission issues, as suggested by the agent, and verify the Anthropic API configuration.

Guidance

  • Review the Anthropic API settings and permissions to ensure they are correctly configured for project creation.
  • Verify that the error message "Failed to create project. You can try again." is not related to a temporary issue with the API or the Claude Code version (sonnet 4.6).
  • Investigate the differences between the current settings and the "rest of simplisafe or my computer settings" mentioned in the additional information.
  • Consider reaching out to the agent again for further clarification on the permission checks they recommended.

Notes

The issue lacks detailed technical information about the project creation process and the Anthropic API configuration, making it challenging to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the issue has never worked, it's essential to investigate and address the potential permission issues and API configuration problems before attempting to create a project again.
