What's Wrong?
After updating to the latest Claude macOS desktop app: Version 1.1.2102 (c5675a) the app is stuck on the Cowork panel and the tabs to switch to Chat or Projects are not visible. There is no way to access these tabs and get out of the Cowork panel.
I've tried quitting out and restarting and checking for updates as well as toggling the sidebar; no change.
The web interface still works as expected.

What Should Happen?
Tab options to switch modes (Chat, Cowork, Projects) should display in or above sidebar and work.
