Description

On the /sandbox screen, the Dependencies tab is shown with all dependencies installed (bubblewrap, socat, seccomp filter). However, arrow keys (/) and Tab do not cycle between tabs. Only Escape works.

The UI shows (←/→ or tab to cycle) hint next to "Dependencies", but none of these keys respond.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: v2.1.71
  • OS: macOS (Darwin 24.6.0)
  • Platform: darwin (Apple Silicon)

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Claude Code in a git repository directory
  2. Run /sandbox
  3. Dependencies tab appears showing all dependencies as "installed"
  4. Press , , or Tab to try cycling tabs — nothing happens
  5. Only Escape key works

Expected behavior

Arrow keys and Tab should cycle between sandbox tabs to allow enabling/configuring sandbox mode.

These are not duplicates: /config works fine.
/sandbox worked perfectly on my computer till today and now whatever the directory, I end up on this screen where I'm stuck

Yes. Works in 2.1.70 and previous, problem both on Intel and Silicon macs.

Sandbox stopped working for me too in 2.1.71. (Ubuntu 24.04)

Yep, same thing here, but on WSL, as mentioned in #31708

Even worse: when I run the 2.1.70 in a directory where sandboxing is already allowed, it works.
If I run a 2.1.71, it says that it is disabled.

Major regression here.

  • Still broken in v2.1.77 on Ubuntu, GNOME Terminal 3.52.0
  • Downgrading to v2.1.74 fixes it
