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:

  1. Ask Claude a question that results in a response with bullet points
  2. Look for any bullet where the text wraps to a second line
  3. 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

  1. Start a conversation in Claude Code (terminal or desktop app)
  2. Ask a question that produces a response with bullet points containing longer text — for example: "What changed

and why?"

  1. In the response, look for any bullet point where the text is long enough to wrap to a second line
  2. 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.
