What's Wrong?
When Claude Code pre-fills a prompt suggestion into the input box after a response,
pressing Enter does nothing. The suggestion text is visible and the cursor is in the
box, but Enter has no effect. Copy-pasting the text and pressing Enter works fine.
What Should Happen?
Claude should execute the suggested command
