What's Wrong?

Bug: Bun runtime segfault on Linux (claude-code 2.1.143, Bun 1.3.14)

Claude Code crashes at least once a day with a Bun-level segfault. Bundled Bun panics before any JS handler can catch it, so --debug and stderr show only the Bun crash report. Happens during normal interactive sessions; no specific tool call reliably triggers it.

Environment

• Claude Code: 2.1.143
• Bun (bundled): 1.3.14 (d2989145) — baseline x86_64 build
• OS: Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS (Noble), kernel 6.18.7-76061807-generic
• glibc: 2.39
• CPU features reported by Bun: sse42 popcnt avx avx2
• RSS at crash: 0.22 GB (peak 0.70 GB) on a 24.76 GB machine — not OOM.
• Elapsed before crash: ~9120 s (~2.5 h session)

Crash output panic: Segmentation fault at address 0x22578AE5C60 oh no: Bun has crashed. This indicates a bug in Bun, not your code.

Illegal instruction (core dumped)

Notes

• Multiple BUN bug reports have also been filed - the latest at https://bun.report/1.3.14/B_1d298914mgkgkEuhogC4wvo4E+ypRg6rh8Cs+9v6C29gw6Cyj18zD+wmznEiroznEkhvynEysiynE0+n+hDy6zj8CmqlnB2muqCA2qiBgmu514D
• Not deterministic. Occurs mid-session after long-running use; no specific MCP server or tool consistently precedes it.
• I will be attempting to revert to Claude Code 2.1.112 as a workaround until this bug can be resolved.

Asks

1. Is the bundled Bun version pinnable, or planned to advance past 1.3.14?
2. Any way to capture a real core dump or stack from inside the bundled Bun for future crashes?
3. Known-good Claude Code version for Ubuntu 24.04 / kernel 6.18.x users while this is investigated.

What Should Happen?

Claude and Bun should not crash
