claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Sandbox initialization fails on Linux: missing apply-seccomp helper in v2.1.98+ [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by ensuring the apply-seccomp helper is present in the native install directory, potentially by reverting to a version where it is known to exist, such as v2.1.97.

Guidance

• Verify that the apply-seccomp helper is indeed missing from the native install directory in versions v2.1.98 and later.
• Check if the workaround provided, creating a symbolic link to a version known to contain the apply-seccomp helper (e.g., ln -sf ~/.local/share/claude/versions/2.1.97 ~/.local/bin/claude), resolves the sandbox initialization issue.
• Investigate why the apply-seccomp helper is missing in newer versions and if there's an official fix or update that includes this helper.
• Consider reaching out to the developers or checking the project's issue tracker for any discussions related to the missing apply-seccomp helper in newer versions.

Example

No specific code snippet is necessary for this issue, as the problem and potential workaround are related to file presence and symbolic linking rather than code changes.

Notes

The provided workaround is specific and may not be applicable or desirable for all users, especially if they require features or fixes present in versions newer than v2.1.97. The long-term solution would involve ensuring the apply-seccomp helper is included in the native install directory of newer versions.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround by creating a symbolic link to a version known to contain the apply-seccomp helper, as this provides a immediate, though potentially temporary, solution to the sandbox initialization issue.
