What's Wrong?

There are many similar issues with different terminals and environments, and with paste hot-keys, but none with mouse paste with an actual fix to get pasting with right-click functioning again.

Environment

• Claude Code version: 2.1.141
• OS: Ubuntu (Linux 6.17.0-1020-oem)
• Terminal: Version 3.52.0 for GNOME 46
• Shell: bash

Description
Right-click → Paste from the GNOME Terminal context menu no longer inserts text into the Claude Code prompt. This worked in a prior version and broke after upgrading to 2.1.141.

Workarounds tried

• Ctrl+Shift+V: (yes this works)
• Middle-click paste (primary selection): (no this does not work)

What Should Happen?

Expected: Select "Paste" and clipboard text is inserted at the cursor
