Email addresses automatically converted to mailto links, preventing plain text copying
Description:
When Claude Code displays email addresses in responses, they are automatically converted to clickable mailto: links. This prevents users from copying plain email addresses for use in other applications.
Steps to reproduce:
- Ask Claude Code to display a list of email addresses
- Try to copy the email addresses from the response
- The copied text includes "mailto:" prefixes
Expected behavior:
Email addresses should be copyable as plain text without mailto: prefixes
Actual behavior:
Email addresses are copied with mailto: prefixes, making them unusable for pasting into applications like Slack, spreadsheets, etc.
Workaround:
Writing the email addresses to a file allows copying the plain text content.
Impact:
This affects workflows where users need to copy email lists for external use (e.g., Slack invitations, mailing lists, etc.).
