What's Wrong?

Claude Code repeatedly executes the same bash command dozens or hundreds of times, causing command spam in the terminal. This happens across all projects and all Claude models, regardless of project configuration.

What Should Happen?

Each command should execute once. If a command succeeds, it should not be retried. If it fails, there should be a limited number of retries with clear error messages.

Error Messages/Logs

The same command is executed repeatedly (30-50+ times) in rapid succession, creating output
  like this:

    Bash(git add settings.py && git commit -m "Fix CORS for booster PATCH requests
    Bash(git add settings.py && git commit -m "Fix CORS for booster PATCH requests
    Bash(git add settings.py && git commit -m "Fix CORS for booster PATCH requests
  ● Bash(git add settings.py && git commit -m "Fix CORS for booster PATCH requests
  ● Bash(git add settings.py && git commit -m "Fix CORS for booster PATCH requests
  ● Bash(git add settings.py && git commit -m "Fix CORS for booster PATCH requests
  [... repeats 40+ more times ...]

Steps to Reproduce

Unknown - it happens intermittently during normal Claude Code usage, particularly when Claude is executing git commands or other bash operations.

Claude Model

Not sure / Multiple models

Is this a regression?

Yes, this worked in a previous version

Platform

Anthropic API

Operating System

Windows

Terminal/Shell

WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

Additional Information

Environment

• OS: Linux (WSL2 on Windows)
• Claude Code Version: Claude Code v2.0.27
• Affected Models: All Claude models (Sonnet, Opus, etc.)
• Frequency: Happens regularly across different projects

What I've Checked

• ✅ No hooks configured: Checked ~/.claude/hooks/ and project .claude/hooks/ - neither directory exists
• ✅ No automated commands in CLAUDE.md: Checked both global ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md and project-specific CLAUDE.md files - they only contain documentation and guidelines, no automated command execution
• ✅ No settings.json hooks: Checked ~/.config/claude-code/settings.json - no hooks configured
• ✅ Happens across all projects: Not specific to one codebase or configuration

Impact

• Severely disrupts workflow
• Makes terminal output unreadable
• May cause unintended side effects (e.g., attempting to commit the same changes multiple times)
• Forces me to interrupt Claude Code or restart the session

Steps to Reproduce

Unknown - it happens intermittently during normal Claude Code usage, particularly when Claude is executing git commands or other bash operations.

Additional Context

The repeated commands appear in the terminal UI as tool calls, suggesting this is happening at the tool execution layer rather than at the bash/git level. The commands themselves may be succeeding on the first try, but Claude Code continues to execute them anyway.

Yes, now Claude Code repeats the command in the terminal many times or repeatedly inserts a space, so that the text immediately goes up out of sight.
