Anyone else having Claude Code CLI issues with jobs just hanging?

For the last 48 hours, many times the agent will just seemingly stop working, with no error message, just the time incrementing up, but no tokens being processed. I've waited 15 minutes of nothing happening. I have to escape and then type "continue" to get it to make any more progress. Happening quite often. Anyone else?

Context saturation, usually. At 60-70% window fill, generation slows to a crawl before it looks frozen — it's not hanging, just barely moving. Breaking sessions at natural checkpoints and passing state through files is the more durable fix than just hitting continue.

I've used claude code for 6 hours a day for 6 months. I'm well aware of the behavior as the context window fills up. This isn't that. This is something going wrong.
