[Bug] VS Code Terminal Flickering and Crash During Long Claude Conversations

Bug Description
In Visual Studio Code, using Claude in the terminal with a long conversation starts resulting in the terminal flickering as I type. This eventually leads to a crash of VS Code if I type too fast. The "flickering" appears to come from redrawing the entire console buffer even if it's cleared from the VS Terminal menu. I'm investigating if there's a safe way to recover from this (avoiding a crash) by perhaps exiting Claude and resuming the session - I deeply hope it'll be possible, as we're deep in a great conversation with a lot of excellent context.
