Claude Desktop keeps timing out

Quick fix

The original post has no verified solution; users reported the settings.json suggestion in comments was ineffective.

Symptom

Error outputCopy

实际对话是不行的，一直提示超时

English translation

Actual conversations do not work and keep timing out.

Cause

The report says the routing master switch works normally, but when only the Claude switch is enabled, connection tests and usage statistics work while actual conversations keep timing out. The reporter also tried common measures such as running as administrator, with no errors in the logs.

A comment suggested adding proxy environment variables to `C:\Users\XXXXX\.claude\settings.json`, but another user with the same issue said it appeared ineffective, and others reported it remained unresolved. Treat this configuration only as an unverified suggestion, not a confirmed fix.

     "env": {
       "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "PROXY_MANAGED",
       "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:15721",
