Research direction
No source file or test is identified in the report. Reproduce the cancellation scenario on darwin with Claude Code 2.1.269, then trace the goal-cancellation behavior around the repeated API 500 errors. Done means cancelling a goal exits cleanly instead of continuing in an infinite loop, with a regression test covering the behavior.
