What's Wrong?

After roughly 2 hours of an interactive session, claude.exe died with a Bun panic and dropped
back to the PowerShell prompt. The session was lost. Two other concurrent claude processes on
the same machine were unaffected and kept running.

What Should Happen?

it doesn't crash ;)

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

No deterministic repro — the crash happened once, mid-session, and has not recurred.
Reporting it for the crash-report URL rather than as a reproducible defect.

Conditions at the time:

  1. Run claude --dangerously-skip-permissions in a large repo (Windows, native build).
  2. Keep an interactive session alive for ~2 hours (Elapsed: 7147917ms).
  3. Two other claude processes were running concurrently against the same working tree;

both survived, only this one died.

  1. The crash occurred while the agent wrote a small Markdown file and read a sibling

index file (auto-memory write). Small payload, no unusual tool.
