## Title

    [Claude Code] 'API Error: 400' tool_use/tool_result/thinking block mismatch after interrupted tool call

## Body

    Cause (Documented platform behavior): Sequence of tool_use/tool_result/thinking blocks in history no longer valid for the API.
    
    Fix status: released_fix (fixed in 2.1.156 (for the normal-use variant))
    
    Workaround (not a fix): /clear to start fresh
    
    Other error fragments:
    - API Error: 400 orphaned tool_result in conversation history. Run /rewind to recover the conversation.
    - API Error: 400 duplicate tool_use ID in conversation history. Run /rewind to recover the conversation.
    - unexpected `tool_use_id` found in `tool_result` blocks
    
    Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor):
    - https://code.claude.com/docs/en/errors (official_docs, 2026-09, documented_behavior): Docs list the 400 variants and say versions before v2.1.156 could trigger it during normal tool use where /rewind doesn't clear it.
    
    Search phrasings: claude code 400 tool_use ids without tool_result; claude code tool use concurrency issues rewind
    
    Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.
