claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Claude Code becomes unusable after reaching design token limits [5 comments, 4 participants]

[{"error":"Error: NON-FATAL: Lock acquisition failed for /Users/suvansh/.local/share/claude/versions/2.1.114 (expected in multi-process scenarios)\n at sd_ (/$bunfs/root/src/entrypoints/cli.js:2751:2177)\n at WH8 (/$bunfs/root/src/entrypoints/cli.js:2751:1257)\n at processTicksAndRejections (native:7:39)","timestamp":"2026-04-19T12:56:28.149Z"}]

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by removing the lock file at /Users/suvansh/.local/share/claude/versions/2.1.114 to allow Claude Code to acquire the necessary lock.

Guidance

• The error message suggests a lock acquisition failure, which might be caused by a stale lock file.
• Verify that the lock file exists at the specified path and try removing it to see if Claude Code functions as expected.
• If removing the lock file resolves the issue, it may indicate a problem with the locking mechanism in the Claude Code application.
• Consider checking for any other error messages or logs that might provide more insight into the locking issue.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems related to file system locking rather than code logic.

Notes

The provided solution is based on the error message indicating a lock acquisition failure. However, without more information about the Claude Code application's locking mechanism, this is an educated guess rather than a definitive fix.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Remove the lock file at /Users/suvansh/.local/share/claude/versions/2.1.114 to potentially resolve the issue, as it directly addresses the error message's indication of a lock acquisition failure.
