Duplicate console output across multiple independent projects (macOS)
Description
Seeing duplicate/repeated console output when using the Claude Code CLI. This affects multiple independent projects on the same machine (not isolated to a single project's configuration), which points to a platform-level regression rather than a project-specific hook or settings issue.
Environment
- OS: macOS (Darwin 25.3.0)
- Claude Code version: 2.1.119
- Affected projects: Multiple independent projects (cross-project, not config-specific)
CLAUDE_CODE_NO_FLICKERset: No — already ruled out as the cause
Symptom
Console output is duplicated/repeated during Claude Code CLI sessions. The duplication appears consistently across different projects, confirming it is not caused by per-project hooks, settings.json configuration, or CLAUDE_CODE_NO_FLICKER.

The cross-project nature of this report (same behavior on macOS across independent workspaces with different configs) suggests a platform-level regression affecting multiple users.
