Having used a bit of a mix of Claude Desktop and Claude Code lately, I discovered that Claude Desktop just times out when it asks you for a decision, and just goes ahead with the action anyway. There is no way to turn this off that I've found, unlike Claude Code where you can ask it to never time out.
- lukan 2mo agoOh yes, over this I also stumbled recently (with Claude CLI) and was annoyed much by it. Is there really no setting to turn it off?
- chrysoprace 2mo agoThere is for Claude Code[0], but not for Desktop. It's `askUserQuestionTimeout` and you can set it to `never`. [0] https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings

- bcherny 2mo agoBoris from the team here -- I don't think this is right. If you are able to repro in the Desktop app, could you comment back? I cannot repro.
- chrysoprace 2mo agoHey mate, just tried it again and the same issue. Note: this is for Cowork, not sure if that makes a difference, I don't use the desktop app for coding. Claude asked me a question at 12:05pm my time, came back at 12:40 and the question prompt disappeared and it spat back a message. Previously when I was writing a Google Doc, it would prompt me for questions, I'd come back and it would have timed out like this and just made a new version of the doc.
