I hope next time the Claude Code team will do regression testing on Windows because it's quite easy to reproduce. I personally know about 5 people impacted by it. I think this is a severe bug that prevents people from using Claude Code because it becomes incomprehensible.

I verified it does this in Warp Terminal and just plain-ol Windows Terminal. And, near as I can tell, started with 2.0.73
