What's Wrong?
Update on ticket 215474281805450:
Original marketplace error is resolved — your org-binding fix landed
overnight. Confirmed by absence of remoteUploadsMigration / paths_unavailable errors in main.log.
However, Claude Desktop 1.7196.0 (CFBundleShortVersionString verified)
now exhibits a NEW silent renderer crash specific to my account:
- Account: e53e6230-0418-4956-abb4-3c03d5fbfca8
- Org: fc2c28b6-fa8e-458b-964b-039b26edcb78
- macOS, Apple Silicon (arm64)
Pattern: Main process initializes successfully through MCP launch and
sessions-bridge init. Renderer dies silently after the OAuth scope
upgrade to user:sessions:claude_code and CCD bundle download from
downloads.claude.ai/claude-code-releases/2.1.138/darwin-arm64/.
Exhausted recovery:
- Full state reset (Cookies, Local Storage, IndexedDB, Session Storage,
GPUCache, Crashpad, Code Cache, Cache, Partitions, Claude Extensions,
CCD bundles, vm_bundles, Caches/HTTPStorages/Preferences at system level)
- MCP config disabled (still crashes)
- Fresh DMG install
- No diagnostic crash reports generated
- No Sentry catch in main.log
- macOS
log showshows no signal/abort, only clean XPC shutdowns
CLI (claude-code 2.1.140) works fine. Web claude.ai works fine.
Only Desktop 1.7196.0 is affected.
Could you provide either:
(a) a download link for an earlier working Desktop version, or
(b) an ETA for a Desktop release that fixes this?

What Should Happen?
The Desktop App should work so that I may use Claude Code on it.
The CLI is working but is very unfriendly to work with the volume of work that I do.
