Brand new MacBook Pro M5 breaks after running local server (Claude Code?)
Brand new MacBook Pro M5 breaks after running local server (Claude Code?)
I’m seeing something really strange on a brand-new MacBook Pro M5.
Every time I run a local server using Claude Code, my Mac starts acting broken:
- Keyboard stops responding
- Apps like Keynote, Chrome, Terminal won’t open or instantly close
- Chrome says “application cannot be opened”
But here’s the weird part:
- Safari works perfectly
- Notes works fine
- System isn’t fully frozen, just… half dead
Everything is fully updated. A restart fixes it, but it happens again once I run the local server.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 26.1
