This doesn't crash for me, although I use c-ts-mode all the time.

I'm not on macOS, so either this is macOS-specific, or your personal
copies of the tree-sitter and/or the grammar libraries is faulty.  In
any case, please show the backtrace from the crashes by running Emacs
under a debugger.

Thanks.

[Kristjon Ciko]

It seems like this is a MacOS-specific issue; more precisely, a MacOS Sonoma-specific since I did not have this problem before the upgrade.

I reinstalled Emacs using `sudo port install emacs-app` and I found out that the issue occurs **ONLY** when Emacs (vanilla Emacs, no config files involved) is launched from the Spotlight search, which points to /Applications/MacPorts/Emacs.app.  Everything works just fine if I run emacs from the terminal (`which emacs` => /Applications/MacPorts/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/emacs)

Same case with my own config; launching it from terminal seems the way to go.

Cheers

Have you make sure that Emacs, when started via Spotlight for instance,
has the same environment variables that you have in the shell (PATH for
example)? It doesn't if you don't do something, like using the
exec-path-from-shell package.

[Kristjon Ciko]

Yeah, I do use exec-path-from-shell in my config. The problem went away with the binary from https://emacsforosx.com/
