What's Wrong?

The Code tab should respond to messages normally, as the Chat tab does.

What Should Happen?

In the Claude Desktop app, the Code tab does not respond to any message. No loading indicator appears and no response is returned. The Chat tab works normally.

Tried: disconnected all connectors, disabled skills and plugins, force-quit and restarted the app, cleared cache. The issue persists.
