TL;DR

The issue with Claude Cowork may be resolved by restarting the conversation from an earlier message as suggested in the error message.

Guidance

  • The error message "Something went wrong" and "Claude Code process exited with code 1" indicates an unexpected termination of the Claude Code process, which may be due to an internal error or an issue with the conversation state.
  • Try restarting the conversation from an earlier message as suggested in the error message to see if it resolves the issue.
  • If the issue persists, providing more context or details about the conversation and the actions taken before the error occurred may help in identifying the root cause.

Notes

The lack of specific error details in the provided JSON output limits the ability to provide a more targeted solution. The issue may be specific to the conversation or the environment, and more information would be needed to provide a definitive fix.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Restart the conversation from an earlier message, as this is the most straightforward and suggested solution based on the error message.
