What's Wrong?

When I write a message in a project under cowork, claude app on mac switches tabs to a black tab and then returns back to desktop. The black tab is nowhere to be found. I click on claude again to continue working. Happens every time I write something in the chat and send. It also 'prepares session' for a couple minutes after every message I send before it actually replies.
I cleared cache and restarted the app. As soon as the app opened up, black tab appeared and disappeared again.

What Should Happen?

I need help!
