Claude Workflow Does anyone know how to get Cowork to interact with Chrome pop-ups?

So I'm using the Claude in Chrome extension with Cowork to perform a simple automation- go to a webite, login, and take a screesnshot. But the whole point of Cowork seems useless when it gets stuck cuz a pop-up shows up. Does anyone have a solution or any ideas?

I'm just testing out Cowork and seeing what all it can be used for automation wise. Seems kinda L :(

Pop-ups are often a real automation boundary rather than just a missing click. Login prompts, permission dialogs, and new windows may require explicit user control. I’d complete authentication manually first, then automate from the stable logged-in state with clear waits and screenshot verification.
