Bug Description
Claude keeps on crashing my VS, I've seen it a lot of times. I've tried muliple things, like only using VS extension, or only using on terminal, changing the terminal from PS to git bash, disabling the extention totally and fully using terminal. However nothing helps, when there is a long task - I see crashes
