Bug: Wolfram .vsnb in VSCode Fails to Handle Recursion Limit Error

Description

When using Wolfram Language in VSCode with .vsnb files, recursion limit errors cause the notebook to hang instead of displaying the expected error message.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a new .vsnb file in VSCode
  2. Enter and execute:
ΓL = {
    {ΓL, 0},
    {0, 0}
};

Expected Behavior

Should show standard Mathematica error:
$RecursionLimit::reclim2: Recursion depth of 1024 exceeded during evaluation of {ΓL,0}
like in Mathematica Notebook.

Actual Behavior

  • Notebook execution hangs
  • No error message displayed

Environment

  • Cursor 0.47.8, Vscode 1.96.2
  • Wolfram Engine 14.2
  • Windows 11
  • .vsnb file format
