What's Wrong?

I was dragging an SVG onto a folder in WebStorm and it crashed. I had to kill the task.

Since this occured claude -c crashes the console. This was the first thing I did after reopening webstorm so it was defiantely caused by the crash a few moments earlier. I've tried deleting cache files, using /clear, I can't really think of anything else that doesn't involve nuking the entire history across 50 or so projects.

What Should Happen?

It shouldn't crash

Error Messages/Logs

I have nothing - the console crashes and becomes unusable, I have to terminate it and get a new one, using claude without -c works fine, but doesn't allow to to continue previous work.
