Environment

  • Platform (select one):
  • [ ] Anthropic API
  • [ ] AWS Bedrock
  • [ ] Google Vertex AI
  • [x] Other: Claude Code
  • Claude CLI version: 1.0.53 (Claude Code)
  • Operating System: macOS 14.5
  • Terminal: Terminal App

## Bug Description
Multiple Claude sessions are no longer providing continuous feedback during large-scale operations and require multiple prompts to resume work. Sessions appear to be actively working
(files are being modified) but stop providing any output or progress updates.

## Steps to Reproduce

  1. Start a session with a large migration task (40-50 files)
  2. Use TodoWrite or provide clear migration instructions
  3. Session begins work and makes initial progress updates
  4. After 10-15 files, session continues modifying files but stops all communication
  5. Multiple "hello" prompts are needed to get any response
  6. Even current session starts exhibiting same behavior

## Expected Behavior

  • Continuous updates like "Now migrating ComponentX..."
  • Progress indicators like "Completed 15/50 components"
  • Clear communication when encountering issues
  • "Thinking out loud" commentary during work

## Actual Behavior

  • Session creates/modifies files successfully but goes completely silent
  • No output for 10-15+ minutes despite active file modifications
  • Requires multiple prompts ("hello", "and?", "you're stopping") to resume
  • When prompted, session shows it was actually working but wasn't communicating

## Additional Context

  • Migration involved creating new UI component library and updating ~50 components
  • Other session created 15 UI components and modified 33 files but stopped all output
  • File timestamps show active work (07:00-07:44) but no session output after 07:00
  • Both sessions exhibited identical behavior pattern
  • This communication breakdown makes it impossible to know if session is working or stalled
