macOS client crashes

Summary

Command Code "cmd" binary crashes after ~10s.

Unfortunately I got excited and instantly bought the "GOAT" plan to test this new tool out but I couldn't launch the application.

I installed it using "npm i -g command-code", then ran "cmd login" to login. I entered a directory and ran "cmd" to start the application and left it untouched, after 10s the app crashed with a big output message.

Expected Behavior

Command Code launches and I can enjoy my subscription.

Actual Behavior

Additional context

I'm running "macOS 27 Golden Gate", though this issue occurred to other users too.

Reproduce with command-code@latest 1.14.1 on macOS using zsh: run cmd login, enter a project directory, start cmd, and wait about 10 seconds. Start from the cmd CLI entry point and the reported Node.js heap-out-of-memory trace. Done means the client remains running instead of aborting with an out-of-memory error under the reported setup.
