Bug Description
Claude code hangs if a git command times out, at least from inside a docker container. Example:

Bash(git status)…
  ⎿  On branch main
     Your branch is ahead of 'origin/main' by 2 commits.
       (use "git push" to publish your local commits)

     Changes not staged for commit:
       (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
       (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
     	modified:   ../prompts/Keap Base Prompt.txt
     	modified:   tandem/spectacular_schema.yaml

     Untracked files:
       (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
     	../entrypoint.sh
     	test_api_call.py
     	test_api_call_no_id.py
     	test_company_creation.py
     	test_fixed_company_creation.py

     no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

● Bash(git push origin main)…
  ⎿  Command execution timed out
     Exit code 143

● Let me try again with a shorter timeout:

● Bash(git push origin main)…

The UI is completely unresponsive at this point and the only fix is closing out of the terminal.

This happens with other git commands occasionally as well.

This should be fixed in v0.2.18. Restart to get the update and lmk if it's feeling better.

Related: if it were possible to _resume_ previous sessions that would be helpful, especially in the event of a crash/hang.

@bcherny it consistently gets stuck in the bash tool, output:

⏺ Now, let me create a Vue plugin for Bun based on the examples and documentation I've reviewed:

  Bash(mkdir -p packages/bun-plugin-vue/src)…

∗ Percolating… (30s · esc to interrupt)

This is 0.2.19 (but has been consistent in each version I've tried). If I try to interrupt it, it prints:


> If I try to interrupt it
  ⎿  API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.14: Did not find 1 `tool_result` block(s) at the beginning of this message. Messages
following `tool_use` blocks must begin with a matching number of `tool_result` blocks."}}

@bcherny it still hangs.

It tried to push twice, after the first one timed out it tried again, but still became unresponsive to keyboard input.

It looks like it is trying to read from interactive input, which I didn't expect:

@Jarred-Sumner would you mind adding a repro in https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/290? Specific tool name + transcript would be very helpful.

@jmaddington thanks for the report! Tracking in https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/292
