What's Wrong?

When using mouse selection inside Claude Code running in tmux (with set -g mouse on),
the border lines of the input area extend beyond the terminal width, causing them to
wrap to the next line. This creates a visible "jump" of ~2 rows in the display.

What Should Happen?

It should not jump :)

Steps to Reproduce

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Run Claude Code inside a tmux session with set -g mouse on
  2. Try to select text with the mouse in or near the input area
  3. The border lines of the input box wrap past the terminal edge, causing the display

to shift/jump by 2 rows

Workaround: Holding Shift while selecting bypasses tmux mouse handling and avoids the
issue.
