Summary
Claude Code is unexpectedly rendering the same banner multiple times in the terminal.
Instead of showing a single banner, the UI repeats the same block over and over, stacking vertically and filling a large portion of the terminal window.
Steps to reproduce
- Open Claude Code in the terminal
- Start a session in a working directory (for example
~/ai) - Observe the startup/status banner area
- In some cases, the same banner is rendered repeatedly many times
Expected behavior
Claude Code should render the banner only once.
Actual behavior
The same banner is rendered repeatedly multiple times.
Environment
- Claude Code version:
2.1.104 - OS: macOS
- Shell: zsh
Additional context
This appears to be a terminal UI rendering issue rather than expected repeated output.
A screenshot is available and can be provided if needed.
