What's Wrong?
It is about Web Claude Code. It has been stuck for few hours. Just keep repeating 'Starting Claude Code ...' . I work on Edge, Windows 11. While I am writing this on one session in terminal, other session is still stuck.
I keep refreshing page, my internet connection is fine, I cleared browser cache more times, Claude code has been working in paralel until session limit reached (a bit short unfortunately)
What Should Happen?
Claude was clearing some bugs it created in php code

Maybe because session is long
It happens when session becomes too long. It stops responding. In the beginning page refresh works but not for long.
Just open new session and it continues. Not the solution but helps until I spend $250.
I'm seeing this happen a lot. It hangs on any browser I've tried (Firefox, Edge, mobile Edge, etc).
+1 I have the same issue
Is this the same as #10343 ?
I think I'm having this issue too.
two of my repos are stuck like this.
I just noticed I could re-vive an archived session. I found the oldest archived session on my stuck repo, and I was able to send it a message and it responded! I'm going to keep playing with it to see if I can "jostle it loose" somehow to begin accepting new sessions.
So I left the oldest conversation, and tried to start a new one, and got the same thing. It just tried to spin up and then was stuck in the usual way.
I went BACK to the oldest conversation, and NONE of our new conversation was displayed, but what was displayed was this:
<img width="1200" height="654" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3bd86d32-e4df-4b3c-a90c-802dd1aa35b3" />
The last of the 3 commands has a pulsing grey circle and appears to still be running.
The conversation is still active, I'm able to keep interacting with Claude here.
🤦🏻 Claude and I may have coded ourselves into this problem:
File: .claude/settings.local.json
Added: December 22, 2025 (commit aabb....)
I think Claude helped me set this up in an "on the web" session, and thus we hoisted ourselves on our own petard.
Petard status: unhoisted, by disabling this whole setting. I dunno if the script is broken, or just anything in SessionStart hooks is bad on the web or what. But - glad to have uncovered the problem now.
Closing for now — inactive for too long. Please open a new issue if this is still relevant.
