Bug Description

When running the /context command in Claude Code CLI, the output displays briefly but then disappears after a few seconds, making it impossible to read the context information.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Start a Claude Code session
  2. Run /context command
  3. Observe the output appears
  4. After a few seconds, the output disappears from the terminal

Expected Behavior

The /context command output should remain visible in the terminal until the user scrolls away or issues another command.

Actual Behavior

The output appears momentarily and then vanishes, giving insufficient time to read the context information.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: Latest (as of 2026-01-22)
  • OS: macOS Darwin 24.6.0
  • Terminal: Standard terminal

Additional Context

This makes it difficult to verify what context Claude Code is working with, especially in complex projects with multiple files and settings.

Workaround

None known - the output disappears too quickly to capture.
