What's Wrong?

Claude Code desktop application crashes within 10 seconds of selecting the "Code" tab. The application exits silently without any error message or crash dialog. This issue is reproducible 100% of the time and affects multiple accounts.

Test Result
Logout and login with same account ❌ Still crashes
Login with 2nd different account ❌ Still crashes
Login with 3rd different account ❌ Still crashes
Restart application ❌ Still crashes

Conclusion: The issue is NOT account-specific. It appears to be a bug in version 1.0.32 (Build 1.2773.0) itself.

Impact
Severity: Critical / Blocker
Impact: Application is completely unusable - cannot access core "Code" functionality
Workaround: None found. Users cannot use Claude Code at all.

P0 / Critical - This bug makes the entire application unusable. Users cannot access the primary "Code" functionality at all.

What Should Happen?

• The "Code" tab should load properly and remain stable
• User should be able to start a new coding session
• If an error occurs, a meaningful error message should be displayed
