Problem Statement
Hi,
I'm a Hebrew-speaking user of Claude Code. When Claude responds in Hebrew, the text is displayed LTR (left-to-right), which makes it harder to read — Hebrew is a RTL language and the current rendering breaks the natural reading flow.
Thanks
Proposed Solution
Request: Add RTL text direction support for Hebrew and Arabic responses in the Claude Code interface (both the desktop app and CLI output where applicable).
This would significantly improve usability for RTL-language users.
