claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG] When opening or starting Claude code in a new project, New instances keep on opening both in terminal in an IDE or if I open a Terminal on my PC [2 comments, 2 participants]

Error Messages/Logs

TL;DR

The issue might be resolved by checking the project configuration or the Claude Code settings to prevent multiple instances from opening.

Guidance

• Verify that the project settings in Sonnet 4.6 are correctly configured to work with Claude Code v2.1.117.
• Check the Claude Code settings to see if there's an option to limit the number of instances that can be opened at the same time.
• Try opening Claude in a different project or with a different model to see if the issue is specific to the current project or model.
• Review the image provided for any clues about the issue, such as multiple windows or processes running in the background.

Notes

The lack of error messages or logs makes it difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue. The fact that this is a regression and worked in a previous version suggests that there might be a compatibility issue with the current version of Claude Code or Sonnet.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try opening Claude in a different project or with a different model to see if the issue is specific to the current project or model, as this might help identify the root cause of the problem.
