Problem Statement

I am totally blind and use a screen reader to access Claude Code.

I would like to request an improvement to Claude Code regarding the terminal output. The content displayed on screen contains many ANSI formatting characters, which cause fluttering sounds when my screen reader reads the screen. This creates significant accessibility challenges for blind users.

Adding a command-line flag such as --no-ansi to start Claude Code without ANSI formatting characters would greatly improve the experience for screen reader users.

Thank you for your consideration.
