Steps to reproduce

Not sure if I did something. I'm on version 0.0.24 now.

I installed the thing a while ago but never used it. I have Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode enabled. I also have another Codex instance added with a different shadow home, but it is not authorized.

I did add one local directory as a project, but have no threads.

The last thing I did was connect to my PC's T3 code instance over HTTP. It was yesterday evening, and I left my macbook overnight on the charger. I woke up, and my macbook is charged but warm; that is unusual. And Activity monitor shows it drained like a lot of battery.

It did try to do the same thing the last time I authorized providers and left the thing idle, but I closed it quickly, and didn't bother with report.

Now, I'm not sure if there is somewhere to search for logs or something, or is there something more I can provide.

My macbook cooled down significantly after I closed t3 code just while I was finishing the issue.

Expected behavior

Normal resource usage

My macbook is fucking hot while app is sitting idle

@bielarusajed I also had this issue. I (temporarily) solved it by simply disabling Cursor in Settings > Providers. Reference where someone pointed out the clue to this: #2646 (comment)
