[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?

After recent updates claude Mac Desktop no longer shows the worktree name, nor create a new worktree to work on. it directly works on main. No UI to select the branch. Please fix. this happens on Xcode projects.

What Should Happen?

It should show the worktree selection and automatically work on a new worktree for each new claude code session. And PLEASE STOP RUININING existing features with daily claude desktop updates. My time is wasted on figuring out claude UI changes than actually working on my projects.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

Open claude desktop Mac.
Create a new claude code session for a Xcode project.

No it is not a duplicate issue, the issue #66442 is related to CLI commands and claude woking on main branch.. My issue is related to claude desktop app (UI, not terminal) not showing the branch selection UI!
