Summary

UI gets stuck in infinite “responding” state after every message

I am experiencing a repeatable issue where the UI becomes stuck after sending any message.

Steps to reproduce

Start the application/user interface. Open a new session. Send a simple message, for example: “hello”. The assistant responds normally. After the response is completed, the UI still shows the message as in progress / still responding. The in-progress indicator never stops. The Stop button does not stop the execution. I cannot continue using the session normally.

Expected behavior

After the assistant finishes responding, the UI should mark the message as completed, stop the in-progress indicator, and allow the next message to be sent normally.

Deleting the session removes the stuck in-progress indicator, but the issue immediately comes back as soon as I create/send another message in a new session.
