Description
During long CLI conversations, the scroll position unexpectedly jumps to the top of the conversation. This happens frequently and disrupts the workflow.
Reproduction

- Have a moderately long conversation (multiple exchanges with tool usage)
- Scroll up to review earlier content — scroll jumps to the top unexpectedly
Triggers
- Mouse wheel scrolling — jumps to top
- Dragging the scrollbar — jumps to top
- During output generation — viewport jumps to top while Claude is streaming a response
Frequency
Happens frequently once the conversation becomes long enough.
Environment
- Claude Code version: 2.1.92
- OS: Windows 11 Home China (10.0.26200)
- Shell: Git Bash (MSYS2)
