what do I need to do to fix it?
Hi Can smoeone please help with this? claude github installed with permissions to all repos but claude code on web does not show any repositores.
For Claude Code on web you'd need to authenticate claude.ai/code to have access to your github. For the /install-github-app command, the issue should be fixed in more recent versions of Claude Code.
Hi Ashwin,
Thanks for quick response!
It says connected in the connectors settings. But on "Claude Code on Web" page when trying to select repository nothing comes up.

Never mind... it seems like there is a delay after installing. It works now. thanks again for quick response!
