What's Wrong?

App version: Claude for Mac 1.3109.0 (35cbf6)
macOS: 15.7.4 (24G517)
Hardware: MacBook Pro 15-inch 2018, Intel Core i9, Intel UHD Graphics 630
Resolution: 1280x800

Bug: The Cowork interface renders with the layout clipped. Text appears cut in half horizontally and the main content area is not visible. The UI only partially improves when the window height is minimized and width is maximized, but it remains unusable.

What Should Happen?

The Cowork layout should render correctly and be fully usable on MacBook Pro 15" 2018 at 1280x800 resolution without any clipping or cut-off content.
