What's Wrong?

Hebrew (RTL) text is displayed left-to-right in the Claude Code interface, causing characters to appear in reverse order. For example, "םולש" appears as "שלום". This affects both text I type in Hebrew and Hebrew text in Claude's responses. The underlying string is correct but the visual rendering is reversed.

What Should Happen?

Hebrew text should be rendered right-to-left, as it is in standard text editors and browsers. The characters should appear in the correct reading order.
