Resolved 💬 5 comments Opened Apr 18, 2026 by remixer-dec Closed May 26, 2026
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)
- [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code
What's Wrong?
I noticed this on multiple different sessions:
- compacted sessions with <20k tokens
- brand new sessions after initial instructions were done and task complete by the model and follow-up comment was added <70k tokens
In both cases I made the follow-up near instantly so there was no time for cache to expire and the size of the context was not too big
What Should Happen?
Claude should provide useful output and UI should indicate that Claude is doing something and what exactly
