Description
### Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched [existing issues](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Abug) 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?
In the Claude Desktop Browser pane (embedded browser used by Claude's browser tools), per-action permission prompts ("Allow Claude to access," "Allow Claude to read the page," "Allow Claude to execute JavaScript," etc.) are supposed to be governed by a per-site "Allow site" setting, so that approving a site once stops future prompts for that site. This works correctly for localhost origins, but does not work for any other hostname — including hostnames that resolve to 127.0.0.1 via the local hosts file. On a non-localhost hostname, every single browser action re-triggers its own approval prompt, indefinitely, even after:
• Explicitly adding the exact host (with and without port) to the "Allow site" list multiple times
• Restarting Claude Desktop entirely
• Confirming via the site list UI that the host shows as allowed
Every single action on a non-localhost hostname re-triggers its own prompt, forever, regardless of prior approvals. localhost origins are unaffected and never prompt.
### What Should Happen?
Once a site is approved (either via the prompt's "always allow"/persistent option, or via the "Allow site" settings list), subsequent actions on that same site should not re-prompt — matching the behavior already seen on localhost.
### Error Messages/Logs
```shell
```
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Open the Browser pane and navigate to http://localhost: — confirm no permission prompts occur across repeated navigate/read/click/type/JS actions.
2. Navigate to a non-localhost hostname that resolves locally (e.g. via hosts file) to the same server, such as http://myhost.local:.
3. Approve the first "Allow Claude to access [site]" prompt.
4. Perform a second, unrelated action on the same page/host (e.g. read the page, click something, run JavaScript).
5. Observe that a new approval prompt fires for this new action, on the same already-approved host.
6. Open the Browser pane's own "Allow site" settings screen — confirm the host is listed as allowed (possibly listed multiple times as duplicate entries from repeated approvals — see note below).
7. Repeat steps 3–5 indefinitely — the prompt never stops recurring for this host, no matter how many times it's approved.
### Claude Model

### Additional Information
The "Allow site" list accumulates duplicate entries for the same hostname (e.g. the same hostname appeared 4 times in the list) rather than recognizing it's already present — suggesting the approval-write path isn't correctly checking/deduplicating against existing entries, which may be related to why the approval isn't being honored on read.

Piste de recherche
Reproduce in the Claude Desktop Browser pane on Windows by comparing localhost with a hosts-file hostname that resolves locally. Start by finding the Browser pane permission prompt and "Allow site" settings persistence/read paths. Done means an approved non-localhost origin stops re-prompting for later actions and the allow list no longer gains duplicate entries.
