TL;DR

The issue with Claude cowork not working on Mac OS with Claude Code version 1.3036.0 may be resolved by investigating the cause of the process exit code 1.

Guidance

  • Investigate the system logs or application logs for any error messages that may indicate why the Claude Code process exited with code 1.
  • Check the compatibility of the current version (1.3036.0) with the macOS operating system and the Anthropic API platform.
  • Since this is a regression, compare the current version with the last known working version to identify potential changes that may have caused the issue.
  • Consider reaching out to the development team or support for further assistance, as the issue may be specific to the Anthropic API or Claude Code implementation.

Notes

The provided information lacks specific details about the error or the system configuration, making it challenging to provide a precise solution. The issue may be related to the Anthropic API, Claude Code, or the macOS environment.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the lack of information and the fact that this is a regression, it might be helpful to try rolling back to a previous version of Claude Code if possible, or waiting for an update that addresses this issue.
