1Password crashes sporadically as a background process

For the last several weeks I'll use my key command to bring up 1Password (I knew it as 1Password mini but it appears that nomenclature has been abandoned) to fill in a webpage, launch a terminal wind...

I've been able to reliably re-produce at least ONE cause of a crash of 1P8 on macOS.

If I visit a website which has HTTP based authentication - you know, 0ld sk00l type, with the web site causing your browser to display the small pop-up panel before proceeding - it will reliably cause 1P8 to crash, somehow.

I'm using Safari on macOS 12.5, no beta versions of that, just of 1P8.

Sequence of events:

  1. Visit website
  2. Safari displays the panel-pop-up, including the option to remember credentials in the Keychain for next time (NOT selected)
  3. I hit command - \ to bring up the 1P search tool, and I search for the site in question (as 1P8 can NOT fill out these panels), copying the password, but not the username
  4. I type my username
  5. I paste my password

At some point in the next few minutes, 1P8 will silently crash in the background, vanish from the menu bar, and is "locked" an extension in all browsers.
