What's Wrong?
I think WSL crashed while I had claude code running and it doesn't start now. I cant get far enough to run bug, doctor doesn't run either.
~/.claude$ claude --version
2.1.47 (Claude Code)
I attached the error output from when it crashed
claude_error.txt
What Should Happen?
It should start up at least or tell me whats wrong
