Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

When I click "Allow" for actions in the pop-ups thatappear, they do absolute nothing. So it actualy wastes time. I have to close the pop-up, since it obstructs the "Allow" button in Claude, and then click "Allow" inside Claude. This is annoying and wastes time. I use Claude Code in Claude Desktop.

What Should Happen?

When I click "Allow" on the pop-up notification, then the "Allow" message in Code should disappear and it must carry on immediately. Currently the Allow in Code stays there, even if I have already clicked "Allow" on the pop-up. The pop-up also does not offer "Allow Always" so then I am FORCED to close the op-up anyway, and click Allow Always in the Desktop App. The pop-up obstructs the Allow button in Claude Desktop, so I now have to click TWICE for every Allow occurrence.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Ask Claude to do something that requires permission.
  2. Claude Desktop asks "Allow Always" or "Allow Once"
  3. The pop-up message appears and covers the "Allow Once" button.
  4. Clicking "Allow" on the pop-up does nothing
  5. Close the pop-up.
  6. Click Allow in the App again.
  7. Pop-ups should NOT appear if Claude Desktop is already open and the front most app.
  8. They MUST also let the Claude app know that I have clicked Allow, so the Desktop App can carry on.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can be mitigated by closing the pop-up and clicking "Allow" in the Claude Desktop app, but a proper fix would require the pop-up to correctly notify the app when "Allow" is clicked.

Guidance

  • The pop-up's "Allow" button not functioning as expected is likely due to a communication issue between the pop-up and the Claude Desktop app.
  • To verify the issue, follow the steps to reproduce and observe the behavior of the pop-up and the app.
  • A potential workaround could be to modify the pop-up's behavior to not obstruct the "Allow" button in the Claude Desktop app, allowing users to click "Allow" directly in the app.
  • The Anthropic API and Claude Code versions should be reviewed to ensure compatibility and check for any known issues.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to the interaction between the pop-up and the Claude Desktop app, and not a specific code error.

Notes

The issue is specific to using Claude Code in the Claude Desktop app on Windows, and the user has not experienced this issue in other contexts.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: The user should close the pop-up and click "Allow" in the Claude Desktop app to mitigate the issue, as there is no clear indication of a fixed version available.
