Bug: first line of multi-line bullet points not rendered in chat

What's Wrong?
Version: 2.1.187
OS: macOS 15.5
When a response contains a bullet point with text that wraps across multiple lines, the first line is not displayed
— only the continuation line(s) are shown. This makes the beginning of the sentence invisible.
Steps to reproduce:
- Ask Claude a question that results in a response with bullet points
- Look for any bullet where the text wraps to a second line
- The first line of that bullet is missing from the rendered output
Expected behavior: All lines of a bullet point are visible.
Actual behavior: Only the second (and further) lines are shown; the first line is cut off.
Notes: This happens intermittently and has occurred across multiple sessions.
What Should Happen?
The first line of that bullet should be rendered

Steps to Reproduce
- Start a conversation in Claude Code (terminal or desktop app)
- Ask a question that produces a response with bullet points containing longer text — for example: "What changed
and why?"
- In the response, look for any bullet point where the text is long enough to wrap to a second line
- Observe that the first line of that bullet is not rendered — only the continuation line(s) are visible
Note: This does not seem to require specific code or files. It appears to be a rendering issue in the chat UI
itself, triggered by multi-line bullet point text. It occurs intermittently across multiple sessions.
