Bug Description
The Bash tool stopped working completely during a session. Multiple commands were attempted but none returned any output or error messages. This includes simple commands like:
- pwd
- ls
- echo "test"
- npm run typecheck
Even with explicit timeout values, no response was received. The tool appears to be completely unresponsive.

⏺ Here's my current todo list:
1. Update CI/CD to support Testcontainers (pending, low priority) - This is the only remaining task from the original test improvement work.
All other tasks have been completed:
- ✅ Created @makedir/testing package structure
- ✅ Set up Testcontainers infrastructure
- ✅ Created test database setup utilities
- ✅ Implemented shared test fixtures and factories
- ✅ Created integration tests for AccountRepo and DirectoryRepo
- ✅ Configured packages to use Vite
- ✅ Added transaction testing scenarios
- ✅ Refactored factories to use drizzle-seed
- ✅ Created beforeAllSetupDb() helper
We just finished updating the tests to use drizzle-seed's reset() function and I was trying to remove the DatabaseCleaner files that are no longer needed.
I also asked it to make a web search - it seems it didn't work too.
Steps to Reproduce
TBH I don't know. I had a long session, compacted our dialog mb 5 times already - it was working completely fine. I didn't reach context limit (min amount was something like ~20%, but I often compacted after a subtask is complete)
Expected Behavior
Well... It should work? :D
Actual Behavior
It doesn't. :)
