Option to Remove Text Box Rendering for Claude Input

Summary:

The claude input has ASCII box around the text input that causes minor headaches. Consider removing the text box or making it optional.

Bug Description

The Claude input uses the dashed lines around the input (dashes for horizontal lines and | pipe characters for the vertical lines.)

When copying and pasting, you'll often get unwanted pipe characters in the copied text.

It also is hard for some terminal apps to render the box when using the backspace, as the terminal app needs to fill in however many spaces are needed to make the right edge appear in a fixed place. My favorite windows terminal program, MobaXTerm, unfortunately doesn't work with with Claude Code for this reason. I have submitted a bug report.

It would be great if there was an option to not have the text box around the input.. Or maybe consider not using it. Just have the last line of the terminal be what will be used for the next command and leave the hints about help or auto-accept above instead of below the text input.

That would be more in the spirit of a command line tool.
