Cannot resize a pty that has already exited

[OdeyFox]

What happened?

I'm getting this error when running tasks in Gemini CLI:

..\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules@google\gemini-cli\node_modules@lydell\node-pty\windowsPtyAgent.js:93
throw new Error('Cannot resize a pty that has already exited');
^

This has been fixed in #12587 and should now be in preview build I believe and will be included in next stable release 👍
