What's Wrong?

When attempting to transfer a local session to remote using &, the loading spinner continues indefinitely and eventually fails with:

API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.1.content.2.tool_use.caller: Extra inputs are not permitted"}}

What Should Happen?

The session should successfully transfer to Claude Code for Web (remote) and continue the conversation there.
