Cypress execution freezes in the local as well as CI environment if there are multiple skipped describe blocks. Here is the example code to reproduce the problem:

/* globals Cypress: true, cy: true */

describe.skip('Groups counter widget', () => {
  it('should redirect to groups page', () => {
    expect('value').to.be.a('string')
  })
})

describe.skip('Custom Locations counter widget', () => {
  it('should allow to create new custom locations if there are no custom locations in domain', () => {
    expect('value').to.be.a('string')
  })
})

Environment details:
Cypress version: 12.4.1
Browser: Chrome126(headless)
Node: 20.13.1

Question:
Can someone please explain Cypress’s behavior in the following 2 cases:

1. When I execute the above spec file, Cypress just freezes during execution. I have to manually exit the process.

2. However, if I remove the second “describe” block, Cypress shows the following output in the terminal, which matches my expectations.

   Tests: 1
   Passing: 0
   Failing: 0
   Pending: 1
   Skipped: 0

Can someone please recommend me a workaround to skip multiple describe blocks in a file, as described in the example code? Neither describe.skip nor marking individual tests as it.skip works. I find it strange that this issue is reproducible even in our CI environment. Also, using the latest Cypress version 13.13.0 doesn’t solve the problem.
