[BUG] Scheduled routine: GitHub App install loop — repo picker doesn't detect already-installed app

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
• [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
• [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

• Created a scheduled routine with a private repo (cedcas/SECOPS-WIKI)
• First run failed: "Claude lost access to its repository" → routine auto-disabled
• In Edit settings, removed repo and tried to re-add
• "Select a repository" shows "Install GitHub App" prompt
• Clicking it installs the app on GitHub (confirmed — repo appears in GitHub's app settings)
• Returning to the routine's repo picker, it still shows "Install GitHub App" instead of listing the repo
• Loop repeats on both web (claude.ai) and desktop app
• gh auth status confirms local GitHub auth is working (separate from this issue)

What Should Happen?

Expected: After installing the Claude GitHub App and granting access to the repo, the repo picker should list it.

Environment: macOS, Claude Code desktop + web, April 2026

Error Messages/Logs

No error messages, it just loops.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a scheduled routine via Claude Code CLI using RemoteTrigger create with a private GitHub repo as a source
2. The first run fails with "GitHub repository access check failed — re-authorize GitHub in settings"
3. The routine auto-disables with message: "This routine was disabled because Claude lost access to its repository"
4. Click "Edit settings" on the routine page
5. Remove the repo chip (click X on the repo name)
6. Click "+" to re-add the repo
7. Click "Select a repository" — no repos listed, only "Install GitHub App" link shown
8. Click "Install GitHub App" — redirects to GitHub, install the app, grant access to the repo
9. GitHub confirms the app is installed and the repo is selected
10. Return to the routine's "Select a repository" dropdown — still shows "Install GitHub App" instead of listing the repo
11. Repeating steps 8-10 loops indefinitely
12. Tried on both claude.ai (web) and Claude Code desktop app — same result
