[BUG] Arrow keys output raw escape sequences in interactive menus (v2.1.92 regression)

What's Wrong?
Claude Code version: 2.1.92 (not present in 2.1.91)
OS: macOS (Apple Silicon)
Terminals tested: Terminal.app, VS Code integrated terminal, Google Antigravity terminal — same behavior on all.
Description:
Arrow keys in interactive menus (e.g. /plan task picker) output raw ANSI escape codes (^[[A^[[B^[[B^) instead of navigating the menu options. Typing and submitting text works fine — only arrow key navigation is broken.
Steps to reproduce:
What Should Happen?
Expected: Menu selection moves up/down
Actual: Raw escape sequences like ^[[B^[[Ba^[[Ba^[[B appear in the input
Workaround: Downgrade to 2.1.91 (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.1.91)
