What's Wrong?

I'm trying to use Claude Code. Regular work. Afte a couple messages, it crashes. Keeps circling those stupid "flabbergasting whatever" messages and doesn't respond anymore.
So I have to close VSCode and open again, then restart extensions, disable and enable Claude Code again. Otherwise it won't work.

What Should Happen?

Claude Code should work as usual, be responsive.
