What's Wrong?
Please, for the love of God, will someone address the flickering, scrolling behaviour of Claude code in the terminal? In my case, specifically in the VSCode terminal. Please, please, please, somebody.
What Should Happen?
It should not flicker or scroll a thousand times a second. It's extremely anxiety-inducing.
