[BUG] Cowork Windows — Response not visible until manual page refresh (Ctrl+R)

What's Wrong?
After submitting a task in Cowork on Windows, Claude's response is not displayed in the UI. The response only becomes visible after manually pressing Ctrl+R to refresh the page. This happens consistently on every Cowork task.
Important: Regular Chat mode works perfectly — responses stream in real-time without any issues. Only Cowork is affected.
The issue persists even with AdGuard (ad blocker) completely disabled, ruling out any network filtering interference.
What Should Happen?
After submitting a Cowork task, Claude's response should appear automatically in the UI — either streamed in real-time or displayed upon completion — without requiring a manual page refresh.
