What's Wrong?

When using "Send to Claude Code Web" from a Claude Design project, the resulting claude.ai/code session has the design bundle attached at the working directory but no way to connect a GitHub repo — not at session start, and not from inside the session.

The composer's + menu only offers "Add image" and "Slash commands". There's no repo picker on the session page, and the Claude Design dialog doesn't expose one either. The only way to connect a GitHub repo is to abandon the session and start a fresh one from claude.ai/code directly, which loses the attached design bundle.

This forces users into a two-step workaround: download the bundle via "Send to local coding agent", commit it manually to their repo, then start a separate web session pointed at that repo.

What Should Happen?

Either (a) the "Send to Claude Code Web" dialog in Claude Design should include a repo picker, or (b) the resulting session should expose one so the design bundle can be committed to an existing repo without leaving the session.

Environment

Claude Code on the web (claude.ai/code)
Session started via Claude Design handoff
Model: Opus 4.7

Steps to Reproduce
