What's Wrong?

When pasting long text into the Claude Code terminal, the content gets cut off or garbled. This has been happening consistently across 4-5 sessions. Only the latter portion of the pasted text arrives — the beginning is silently dropped.

What Should Happen?

Full pasted text should appear intact in the input field.

Steps to Reproduce
