claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG] Claude Cowork Tasks Always Ends in = Claude Code process exited with code 137 [1 comments, 1 participants]

Error Messages/Logs

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by downgrading to the last known working version of Claude Code, which is version 4.6.

Guidance

• Verify that the issue persists when running Claude Code with a minimal setup and a simple prompt to isolate the problem.
• Check the system resources (e.g., memory, CPU) to ensure they are not being exhausted, which could cause the process to exit with code 137.
• Try running Claude Code with a different model, if available, to see if the issue is model-specific.
• Review the Anthropic API documentation to ensure that the API has not introduced any breaking changes that could be causing the issue.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient code-related information.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to a regression introduced in a version later than 4.6, and downgrading might be a temporary workaround. However, without more information about the changes introduced in later versions or the specific prompt being used, it's difficult to provide a more targeted solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Downgrade to version 4.6, as it is the last known working version, to temporarily resolve the issue until a fix is available for the current version.
