What's Wrong?

Description

When typing Hebrew (RTL) text in the Claude Code VS Code extension chat input,
the text appears reversed/mirrored. For example, "שלום" displays as "םולש".

Environment

• OS: Windows 11
• VS Code version: (press Ctrl+Shift+P → "About" to check)
• Claude Code extension version: (check in Extensions panel)

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Claude Code in VS Code
2. Type any Hebrew text in the chat input
3. Text appears reversed (left-to-right instead of right-to-left)

Expected behavior

Hebrew text should render right-to-left, as it did in previous versions.

Notes

This is a regression - Hebrew input worked correctly in a previous version.
