[Bug] Anthropic API Error: Image exceeds 5 MB maximum causes persistent message state corruption

Bug Description
When Claude tries to open an image that larger that 5mb, it errors out with the following error:
Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.30.content.0.tool_result.content.0.image.source.base64: image
exceeds 5 MB maximum: 5577016 bytes > 5242880 bytes"},"request_id":"req_011CVPs4RgUBL3LkQnMmiiXe"}

After this error, any consecutive prompt to Claude results in the same error over and over.

Example:
⎿  Read image (4MB)
⎿ API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.30.content.0.tool_result.content.0.image.source.base64:
image exceeds 5 MB maximum: 5577016 bytes > 5242880 bytes"},"request_id":"req_011CVPs4RgUBL3LkQnMmiiXe"}
