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?

I used to be able to resize the Claude Code window down to about 300 pixels and keep it docked on the right side of my monitor while working on other tasks. After updating to the latest version, that’s no longer possible. The window now has a minimum width of 600 pixels. That’s not ideal for programming, especially when you need multiple windows open at once.

What Should Happen?

Please allow the claude code app to resize. It's width back to 300 pixels..

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by reverting to the previous version of Claude Code, which is confirmed to work as expected.

Guidance

  • Verify that the issue persists across different operating systems or platforms to determine if it's specific to macOS or the Anthropic API.
  • Check the release notes for the latest version of Claude Code to see if the minimum window width change was an intentional update.
  • Test resizing the window in other applications to ensure it's not a system-wide issue.
  • Consider reaching out to the development team to report the regression and request a fix in a future update.

Example

No code snippet is provided as this issue appears to be related to the application's UI behavior rather than a specific code problem.

Notes

The fact that this worked in a previous version (2.1.112) but not in the same version (2.1.112) listed as the current version suggests there might be some discrepancy in the versioning or an external factor causing the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the previous version (2.1.112) is mentioned as the last working version but is also listed as the current version, it seems there might be confusion. However, if possible, trying an actual earlier version than 2.1.112 might resolve the issue temporarily until a fix is released. The reason is to restore the functionality that was present before the update.
