What's Wrong?

I call "claude" on the linux command line in a terminal window. The startup screen appears, showing v2.1.47. It gives me the prompt ">" but before I can type anything the program exits with status 0. This happens repeatedly.

What Should Happen?

Claude should remain running and let me type something in.
