What's Wrong?

After submitting a message in the Claude Code console, the input field is not cleared. The previously submitted text remains in the input box, requiring manual deletion before typing a new message.

Actual behavior: Input field retains the previously submitted message.

it seems like there was same problem that is marked as resolved https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/27266 but it was like this for me for 2 weeks and I update claude daily
