Turning an error into text no longer causes a second error

When Claude Code cannot turn an error into text, it now shows "a value with no text" instead of failing again

What

When something goes wrong, Claude Code turns the error into text so it can report it. Some unusual errors could make that step fail too, so reporting the problem caused another problem. Claude Code now catches that failure and shows "a value with no text" instead.

Why

Errors are reported more reliably, and an odd error can no longer break the error reporting itself.
