What's Wrong?

Platform: Windows 11 Pro, Claude desktop app v1.7196.0.0 (UWP/sandboxed install)

Reproduction steps:

  1. Start any new Cowork session
  2. Send a first prompt — completes successfully
  3. Send a second prompt in the same session
  4. Error appears immediately: "Failed to resume session: EINVAL: invalid argument, stat '...\local_XXXX.claude\projects...\outputs\YYYY.jsonl'"

From the coworkd guest logs, each tool invocation creates a new oneshot user session (e.g. exciting-beautiful-euler, kind-zealous-lovelace) with a new local_XXXX outputs folder, then tears it down completely after the task. On the second prompt, the app attempts to resume by stat-ing the .jsonl from the previous invocation's local_XXXX folder, but that mount has already been cleaned up, causing EINVAL.

The session resume logic appears to be referencing a file path that is only valid while the previous oneshot mount is live.

What Should Happen?

Claude should run second prompt without error.
