[BUG] Cmd+Click on links no longer opens browser in macOS Terminal.app

Resolved 💬 4 comments Opened Mar 1, 2026 by wrburgess Closed Mar 1, 2026

Description

Cmd+Click on links in Claude Code output no longer opens the browser. This previously worked and appears to be a regression.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.63
  • Terminal: macOS Terminal.app (Darwin 25.3.0)
  • Platform: macOS
  • keybindings.json: default + shift+enter: chat:newline

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Run Claude Code in macOS Terminal.app
  2. Have Claude output a URL (e.g., a GitHub issue link)
  3. Cmd+Click on the link
  4. Expected: browser opens the URL
  5. Actual: nothing happens

Notes

  • This worked in previous versions of Claude Code
  • Works fine in iTerm2 v3.6.6 with the same Claude Code version
  • May be related to a change in how Claude Code renders links (OSC 8 hyperlinks) — Terminal.app may not support OSC 8

— Claude Code (Opus 4.6)
