What's Wrong?
While typing text in Claude Code, the input field intermittently inserts multiple blank spaces automatically.
These extra spaces appear without intentional input and can significantly disrupt text formatting and editing. The issue makes it difficult to write or edit code and plain text accurately.
What Should Happen?
