I'm also having issues with "Open in CLI" feature. For me, the "Open In CLI" is just disabled (both in web and desktop app, tried different sessions). There are no indicators of why it's disabled.

@joshling1919 Seeing the same issue, I believe until the agent has pushed changes to the branch you can't use "Open in CLI". Makes sense for this to be the case when files have been written but not committed, but doesn't make sense for this to be disabled if no files have been written yet. Some sort of tooltip for why it's disabled would help a lot here.
