bug: Chat ends when Claude Code agent spawns a background agent and never resumes #220
Description
Hello,
When using the Claude Code agent with Open Computer, the chat session ends as soon as the agent spawns a background agent and never resumes once the background agent has finished.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start a chat using the Claude Code agent in Open Computer
- Trigger a task that causes the agent to spawn a background agent
- Observe that the chat finishes immediately
- Wait for the background agent to complete
- Observe that the chat never picks up again
Thank you for looking into this!
Best regards,
Joshua Krimmer

🟣 #195 bug: the
claudeCLI subprocess is torn down at the end of every turn, killing in-flight background agentsDirectly matches the reported symptom: the Claude Code subprocess is torn down at the end of a turn, which kills any in-flight background agent and prevents the chat from resuming when it finishes.

🟢 #213 bug: a stalled agent session hangs the chat task forever, and the whole transcript is lost if you kill it
Related because both involve agent runs that do not complete cleanly and leave the chat/task in a stuck state. This issue focuses on stalled sessions hanging forever, which overlaps with the ‘chat never resumes’ failure mode.
