What's Wrong?
My GitHub repositories do not appear in the Claude Code repo picker, despite the
Claude GitHub App being correctly installed and connected on Claude Desktop.
The picker shows "No repos match" regardless of search term.
Steps to reproduce
- Install the Claude GitHub App via github.com/apps/claude/installations/new
- Confirm app is installed at github.com/settings/installations — shows
correct permissions (read/write access to code, PRs, issues, etc.)
- Connect GitHub in Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors → shows "Connected"
- Open the repo picker ("+ Select repo...")
- Search for repo name → result: "No repos match"
What I've already tried
- Confirmed GitHub App shows "Configured" with access on the GitHub side
- Disconnected and reconnected the GitHub connector in Claude Desktop
- Uninstalled/reinstalled the GitHub App fresh
- Hard restarted Claude Desktop
Request
Could someone from the team please trigger a backend repository index reset
for my GitHub account?
