Description
**Describe the bug**
I was playing around with a puzzle and got into a state where I only ever get the output "[Object object]". No matter which steps I disable (or even if I disable all of them), I get the same output. Using the URL and opening in a new tab gives the same result. Opening in private browsing gives the same result. Opening in a different browser gives the same result.
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behaviour or a link to the recipe / input used to cause the bug:
See above.
**Expected behaviour**
Any error state should be recoverable.
**Screenshots**
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
**Desktop (if relevant, please complete the following information):**
- OS: All
- Browser: All
- CyberChef version: 9.46.0

Research direction
Open the linked CyberChef recipe and reproduce the "[Object object]" output with the listed disabled steps in CyberChef 9.46.0. Trace the failing conditional-jump or error-display path from that reproduction; done means the recipe reaches a recoverable error state or produces an appropriate error message instead of "[Object object]".
