What's Wrong?

The Claude Code extension's UI buttons (e.g., Accept/Reject, Run) became unresponsive while a Zoom remote control session was active. Clicking the buttons produced no effect. The Command Palette equivalents (Cmd+Shift+P → "Claude Code: ...") continued to work, which suggests the underlying commands are fine and the issue is in the button event handlers / focus handling. ### Suspected cause Zoom's remote control feature appears to capture or interfere with keyboard/mouse events and window focus. This may be detaching event listeners or shifting focus away from the webview hosting the extension UI. ### Steps to reproduce 1. Start a Zoom call and grant/receive remote control. 2. Open VS Code with the Claude Code extension. 3. Trigger a Claude Code action that surfaces UI buttons (e.g., a code suggestion with Accept/Reject). 4. Click the buttons — no response. 5. Use Cmd+Shift+P → equivalent command — works as expected.

### Workaround Use the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) → search "Claude Code" — every toolbar action has a Palette equivalent. ### Additional context Happy to provide a screen recording if it helps. Have not yet tested whether the bug reproduces outside of Zoom remote control sessions.
