What's Wrong?
Git Sync Issue - Quick Summary
Issue: Claude Code Web git pushes claim success but don't reach GitHub
Evidence:
- Local git shows branch exists:
origin/claude/testing-mim0tj0wnrksuewv-01BVeRB8KfpEcE8gBQNFR9dW - GitHub shows: Branch does NOT exist
- Git remote shows: "(up to date)" - but this is false
Impact:
- Commits lost when session ends (only in local proxy)
- Cannot share work between Claude Code instances
- Cannot test changes (need CLI for Qt UI)
- Complete loss of confidence in git operations
Root Cause:
Git proxy at 127.0.0.1:33528 is not actually syncing to GitHub despite reporting success.
Proof:
$ git remote show origin
Remote branches:
claude/testing-mim0tj0wnrksuewv-01BVeRB8KfpEcE8gBQNFR9dW tracked
Local ref configured for 'git push':
claude/testing-mim0tj0wnrksuewv-01BVeRB8KfpEcE8gBQNFR9dW pushes to ... (up to date)
But user confirms: "there is no branch in github with those changes"
Recommendation:
Use Claude Code CLI exclusively until this is fixed. Web instance git is unreliable.

What Should Happen?
github should be in sync.
From Claude:
Regarding the 127.0.0.1:33528 proxy - this is pre-configured by the Claude Code environment and I cannot bypass or reconfigure it. It's designed to handle git authentication, but as you've noticed, it may not be syncing reliably to GitHub.
