Task terminates after showing "(reasoning omitted)" when entering background execution

Description

During execution of a task that requires background processing, the TUI enters a "thinking" state, displays (reasoning omitted), and then unexpectedly terminates without completing the remaining tasks. No further output or error is shown.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start DeepSeek-TUI.
  2. Request a task that triggers background execution (e.g., a long-running tool call or a multi-step reasoning task).
  3. Observe the TUI behavior.

Expected behavior

The TUI should continue processing the background task, show incremental reasoning (or a proper progress indicator), and complete all subsequent steps without crashing or terminating.

Actual behavior

After (reasoning omitted) appears, the TUI abruptly stops – the session ends, and no further interaction is possible. The remaining tasks are never executed.

Environment

  • OS: Ubuntu 24.04
  • DeepSeek CLI version: v0.8.28
  • Model: deepseek-v4-flash
  • Shell: bash
