What's Wrong?

When navigating open files and changing line number using the arrow keys, Claude Code runs excessive ripgrep commands, clogging up our server. It seems that Claude Code runs the ripgrep command on any line change in general. This did not happen in version 1.0.127 of the extension. It started happening with the 1.0.128 update and continues to happen in the newest version (2.0.2). Claude code is not even open or active and this is happening.

What Should Happen?

It should not run ripgrep commands on every line change.
