Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by running the reported wt.exe command on Windows Terminal 1.23.12811.0 and confirm whether the multi-pane sequence reproduces the crash. Trace the command-line pane-splitting and move-focus operations to identify the failure; done means the command opens eight panes with the requested profiles without crashing any terminal window.
