I am getting this as well. I only started getting this when I was using Superpowers across multiple projects at the same time. I suspect that it might be related to multiple concurrent processes going on at once.

What request is causing 500 error for you? Show me the URL/body?

Claude
I haven't encountered any 500 errors on my end — I was just proceeding with the implementation and hadn't made any HTTP requests.
