Description
Hello,
When using the Claude Code agent with Open Computer, the chat session ends as soon as the agent spawns a background agent and never resumes once the background agent has finished.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start a chat using the Claude Code agent in Open Computer
- Trigger a task that causes the agent to spawn a background agent
- Observe that the chat finishes immediately
- Wait for the background agent to complete
- Observe that the chat never picks up again
Thank you for looking into this!
Best regards,
Joshua Krimmer

Confirm that the chat remains active and resumes after the background agent finishes, and add or update coverage for this sequence if the repository has a suitable test location.
