What's Wrong?
Text at the beginning of output lines is being cut off/not displayed. Also seeing random large gaps between prompt and response. Issue persists across Windows Terminal and VS Code terminal.
Tried:
- Reinstalling CLI (npm uninstall -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code + npm install)
- Clearing npm cache
- Running in different terminals (Windows Terminal, VS Code, CMD)
- System file repair (sfc /scannow found and repaired corrupted files)
- Rebooting
- - Tested on a completely different computer (sister's PC) and the bug persists there too
Issue improved slightly after system repair but still present.

- CLI version: 2.0.73
- Machine: HP EliteDesk 800 G5 SFF
- CPU: Intel 6th gen ~3GHz

- Node version: [corre "node -v" y pon lo que salga]
