Preflight Checklist

  • [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • [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?

Open Claude Desktop's Browser pane
Navigate to https://suno.com/create
Click "Login with Google" and authenticate with a Gmail account
App immediately closes itself
Result: App won't reopen — process appears to fully exit. Required full reinstall to launch again.
Note: No crash entry found in Windows Event Viewer or Reliability Monitor — suggests a clean/intentional exit rather than an unhandled exception.
Environment: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200

What Should Happen?

After clicking "Login with Google" and completing authentication, the app should return to the suno.com/create page (logged in) and continue running normally — not close itself. If it does close, it should be able to reopen normally afterward without requiring a reinstall.

Steps to Reproduce

Open Claude Desktop (Windows)
Open the in-app Browser pane
Navigate to https://suno.com/create
Click the "Login" button and choose to sign in with a Google account (Gmail)
Complete the Google account selection/authentication in the OAuth flow
Result: Immediately after this, the Claude Desktop app closes itself. Reopening the app does nothing — it fails to launch. The only way to get the app working again is to fully uninstall and reinstall it.
