close stdin: {e}

Error message

close stdin: {e}

What it means

Shutting down the write half of the claude child's stdin failed after successfully writing the prompt. The child needs EOF to begin processing; a failed shutdown means the pipe is broken (child gone) and the turn cannot proceed.

Solutions

1. Check whether the claude process exited prematurely
2. Retry the turn
