[BUG] Channel notifications silently dropped after a few minutes of active conversation

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
• [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)

What's Wrong?

Telegram plugin debug log confirms notification sent successfully, but Claude Code stops surfacing them after ~3-5 minutes of active conversation

• version: 2.1.104, macOS 14.3

What Should Happen?

Claude Code should process and respond to all incoming channel notifications
from the Telegram plugin, as long as the session is running. The debug log
confirms the plugin is delivering every notification — Claude Code should
surface them to the conversation.
