• Consider using the open command via Bash as a temporary workaround, as mentioned in the issue report.
• Review the documentation for the Anthropic API and Claude Code to see if there are any known issues or limitations with file linking on macOS.
• Test the link handling with different file types to see if the issue is specific to certain file extensions.
