What's Wrong?

Claude Code process dies unexpectedly and randomly on Windows.
When restarting with claude, it requires a full re-login.

What Should Happen?

Crashes are random, no pattern in timing

• No error message shown — the process just dies
• After restart, login is required again (token not persisted)
• No crash logs found in ~/.claude/
• Same user running Claude Code via SSH on Raspberry Pi (Linux)

has NO disconnection issues — problem is Windows-specific
