What's Wrong?

## Description
Claude Code sessions repeatedly abort/crash when processing meeting notes using the meeting-note-processor subagent. This has happened multiple times in a row, making it impossible to complete work.

## Actual Behavior
Session terminates unexpectedly with no error message. When reconnecting, Claude has no memory of the previous session. Claude is able to process the call transcripts without the subagent.

## Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.23
  • OS: macOS 15.6.1
  • RAM: 32 GB
  • MCP servers: Atlassian, Gmail, Obsidian
  • Using subagents: meeting-note-processor

## Additional Context

  • Happens consistently when processing meeting transcripts
  • No crash logs found in ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/
  • Main log (~/Library/Logs/Claude/main.log) shows no obvious errors
  • This is blocking critical workflow for meeting note processing

## Impact
Medium - Cannot complete job duties without reliable transcript processing and not using a subagent fills my context window.

What Should Happen?

## Expected Behavior
The subagent should complete processing the transcript and create/update notes without crashing.

Error Messages/Logs

No logs.  System says Aborted() and then presents a blank screen that I have to Ctrl-C out of.

Steps to Reproduce

## Steps to Reproduce

  1. Start Claude Code in Obsidian vault
  2. Ask Claude to process a call transcript from inbox using a subagent
  3. Session aborts mid-processing
