Description
The Claude Code panel went completely blank during a tool execution sequence. No user prompt appeared for tool approval/rejection, but the assistant received a rejection error with user feedback.
Steps to Reproduce
- Assistant executed:
git config user.name | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' | tr ' ' '-' - Command succeeded and returned "jim-sander"
- Assistant attempted to execute:
mkdir -p ~/repos/platform-utilities/docs/contributors/jim-sander/PANK-1929 - Panel went blank on user side
- No approval/rejection prompt appeared to user
- Assistant received error: "The user doesn't want to proceed with this tool use. The tool use was rejected"
Expected Behavior
- User should see a prompt to approve/reject tool execution
- Panel should remain visible and responsive
- Tool execution flow should be clear to user
Actual Behavior
- Panel went blank with no content visible
- No prompt appeared for user interaction
- Assistant and user state got out of sync (assistant saw rejection, user saw nothing)
Environment
- macOS (Darwin 25.0.0)
- Claude Code (latest version as of 2025-11-21)
- Working directory: /Users/jimsander/repos/platform-github-actions
- Model: claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929
Additional Context
This appears to be a UI rendering/state synchronization issue where:
- Tool execution happens
- Response handling breaks
- Panel fails to render
- User interaction flow is interrupted
The underlying commands actually succeeded, but the UI failed to display the results or prompt for approval.
