What's Wrong?

When switching between chats, the previously viewed chat fails to reload properly upon returning to it — only the Claude icon is displayed and the chat content is not visible or scrollable. Typing a message in the affected chat temporarily resolves the issue, but the problem reoccurs every time you switch back to a chat. This issue occurs both in the Mac app and in the browser."

Appeared first time 2 days ago after I pressed "command + 1" (by accident) but it should just switch to the "Chat" part.

Attached 2 screen recording in Safari Browser and Mac App

What Should Happen?

The chat content should load and display correctly every time you navigate back to a previously viewed chat.
