What's Wrong?

In the Claude Code desktop app sidebar, the "Recents" list is empty when "Group by" is set to None. Switching "Group by" to Date or Project correctly displays all sessions.

Expected: "Group by: None" shows a flat, ungrouped list of all recent sessions. Actual: The list is empty.

Steps to reproduce:

Open the Code tab in the sidebar Click the filter icon next to "Recents" Set "Group by" to "None" Observe: Recents is empty Change "Group by" to "Project" or "Date" → sessions reappear Environment:

OS: Windows 11 Pro (10.0.26200) Claude Code Desktop App All other filters set to "All"

What Should Happen?

Group by: None" shows a flat, ungrouped list of all recent sessions. Actual: The list is empty.

TL;DR

The issue might be resolved by investigating and fixing the data processing or filtering logic when the "Group by" option is set to "None" in the Claude Code desktop app.

Guidance

  • Review the code responsible for handling the "Group by" filter, specifically the case when it's set to "None", to ensure it correctly retrieves and displays all recent sessions without grouping.
  • Verify that the data source for the "Recents" list is properly populated and accessible when the "Group by" filter is set to "None".
  • Compare the code differences between the current version and the last known working version to identify potential changes that might have introduced this issue.
  • Test the "Group by" filter with different settings to see if the issue is specific to the "None" setting or if it's a more general problem with the filtering logic.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to a regression introduced in a recent update, as it worked in a previous version. However, without more specific information about the code changes or the exact version that introduced the issue, it's challenging to provide a precise fix.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Temporarily use the "Group by" filter set to "Project" or "Date" to display recent sessions, while the development team investigates and fixes the issue with the "None" setting.
