When a session was started by a launcher (another program that starts Claude Code for you), Claude Code now refuses to take one. It returns an error saying heap dumps are unavailable in a launcher-started session.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis limits a diagnostic tool. If you start Claude Code through a launcher and need a heap dump, you will have to start a session another way.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
