What's Wrong?

I was using the Claude mobile app to control an existing Claude Code session running in a terminal on my computer. I sent a task and immediately tapped stop/cancel.

The mobile app remained in a running/processing state, with no progress or response. Its send/stop control continued to indicate that the task was running. In the terminal, the task continued despite the cancellation attempt and ran to completion. The mobile app still appeared to be running after the terminal task had finished.

What Should Happen?

Cancelling from the app should interrupt the corresponding terminal task. Both interfaces should show the correct status. If cancellation fails or arrives too late, the app should reflect the actual state and show the result rather than remain stuck.
