The file src/cleveragents/tui/widgets/thought_block.py uses broad exception handling in two places:

_load_static_base uses except Exception.
on_key uses except AttributeError.

While these are used for fallback and event handling, it is better to catch more specific exceptions to avoid masking unexpected errors.

Recommendation:

Refactor the exception handling to catch more specific exceptions.
