What's Wrong?

Hi, I'm using the latest version v2.1.23 and I notice whenever the PostToolUse hook is invoked now, it errors out and the conversation stopped with Claude not continuing its action anymore. I need to repeatedly ask it to "Continue with execution" so that it'd resume with what it's doing, even though it has a long list of tasks still waiting to be implemented. Please take a look into this. Thanks

What Should Happen?

Claude should be continue doing its task given its task list without needing user to ask it to resume execution.

Steps to Reproduce

Ask it to come up with a plan to do something. it generates about N items in the task. Once any task uses the PostToolUse hook, it just suddenly stops. User needs to explicitly tells it to continue so that it'd know to resume its execution
