However, the issue is still occurring.

What is happening
When the agent attempts to:
- Install packages (e.g. via npm/pnpm/yarn)
- Run a build command (e.g. pnpm build / npm run build)
The terminal gets stuck during execution and does not complete.
The process appears to hang indefinitely without progressing or throwing an error.
Steps to reproduce
- Open project workspace
- Ask the agent to install dependencies
- Observe terminal hangs at "installing..."
- Ask the agent to run a build command
- Build process also hangs
Expected behavior
The agent should:
- Execute the install command successfully
- Complete dependency installation
- Execute build commands normally
- Return output or errors if applicable
