What's Wrong?

Using the latest version of the Claude Code terminal application on OSX, selecting multiple images from the Finder and dragging them as a stack to the Claude Code window results in only the first image appearing and uploading, rather than all of the images.

This is a regression as around a month ago, dragging a stack of images resulted in all images being recognized and uploaded.

This bug reproduces 100% of the time.

Incidentally, you also may wish to be made aware that sometimes dropping a single image fails entirely and instead replaces the pending prompt with the directory location of the image, which is quite frustrating but I can't provide instructions to reliably reproduce that one.

What Should Happen?

Expected behavior: - User selects 2 or more images from Finder

  • User drags images to prompt area of Claude Code TUI on OSX
  • User drops images by releasing the mouse cursor
  • Several images are recognized (terminal shows [Image 1][Image 2][Image 3])
