[BUG] Code tab SSH not responding on Windows 10 Home - messages sent but no response

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
• [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
• [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

Claude Desktop Code tab connects to remote server via SSH (connection shown in footer), but messages sent in the Code tab never receive any response. The UI shows the message but Claude never replies.

Claude Code works perfectly when used directly in terminal via SSH.
Local Code tab (without SSH) also works fine.

Environment:

• Claude Desktop: 1.1617.0 (8d6345) 2026-04-09
• OS: Windows 10 Home
• Remote server: Ubuntu 24.04
• Node.js on server: v22.22.2
• Claude Code on server: v2.1.101
• claude auth status: loggedIn true, subscriptionType max
• /doctor: all OK

Steps to reproduce:

1. Set up SSH connection to remote server in Code tab settings
2. Connect to server (connection establishes successfully)
3. Send any message
4. No response ever appears

Expected: Claude should respond to messages
Actual: Messages are sent but no response appears

What Should Happen?

Claude should respond to messages sent in the Code tab when connected to a remote server via SSH, just as it does when used locally or via terminal.

Steps to Reproduce

2. Go to Code tab
3. Set up SSH connection to remote Ubuntu server (root@IP, port 22)

5. Send any message (e.g. "create a file called test.txt")
6. Message appears in chat but Claude never responds
7. Tried both Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 - same result
8. Claude Code works fine in terminal via SSH (ssh into server, run "claude")
