[Bug] ESC key doesn't work when claude terminal is started by intellij

Bug Description
When I launch clode from the Intellij plugin the ESC key doesn't work, so I can't step out of a specific command and I have to entirely quit the session by using CTRL+C. If I launch claude directly from the Intellij terminal it works fine.
