Research direction

Start by reproducing the report on win32 in VS Code with Claude Code 2.1.239, using feedback ID fdd3ad06-9a12-46a1-97a6-1c7f5648e63b and the VirtualMessageList error as the entry point. The report does not name a source file or test; done means isolating the cause of the token waste or message-list desynchronization and verifying the resulting behavior.
