Allow expanding collapsed/folded user input in conversation view

Feature Request

Problem

When pasting or inputting large blocks of text (e.g., multi-line content via voice input), Claude Code automatically collapses/folds the user input in the conversation view. There is currently no way to expand and review the folded input.

This is particularly problematic for voice input users who need to verify what was transcribed before or after submission.

What I tried

  • Ctrl+O (transcript viewer): only expands assistant output and tool calls, not the folded user input
  • Ctrl+E (show all) in transcript mode: does not expand user input either

Expected Behavior

Users should be able to click or use a keyboard shortcut to expand collapsed user input and review the full text.

Use Case

When using voice-to-text input, users need to check whether the transcription is accurate. The auto-collapse makes this impossible after submission.

Environment

  • Claude Code CLI (terminal)
  • macOS
