Claude Cowork Projects update frustrates users with broken workflows

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The update appears to have shifted project execution to the cloud by default, breaking existing workflows that relied on local folder access and internet connectivity. Furthermore, the ability to attach persistent local folders to projects has been removed, with users now only able to add individual files, which is seen as a significant downgrade from the previous functionality.
