What's Wrong?

Confirming this is still happening. macOS, Claude Code v2.1.205, Desktop app Code tab.
The "Workspace trust needed" banner appears and never lets me approve — clicking "View details" shows no approve/trust option, just the same error message repeated.
Things I tried, none worked:

Fully quitting and restarting the desktop app
Removing and re-adding the folder via the "+" folder picker
Testing with two different folders (one pre-existing, one brand new) — both hit the same trust warning

Workaround: trusting the folder via the terminal (cd into the folder, run claude, approve the trust prompt there) works fine and lets me use Claude Code normally in Terminal. But the desktop app's Code tab still won't recognize that trust and stays stuck on this banner regardless.

What Should Happen?

a prompt to agree to trust so I can continue working
