same issue here, my specific case #6175 attempted to read a .jpg that actually contained html data causing this exact same loop

[brandon-thomson]

I was getting this repeatedly even after restarting Claude Code. Switching projects fixed it.

[jaredthirsk]

I just ran into something related to this with a 179KB png that I wanted Claude Code to analyze. I started a new session and it proceeded with analyzing the image.
