Problem Statement
Description
When running /compact in the Claude Code VS Code extension, the resulting compaction summary is rendered in a way that can't be selected/copied by the user. Other assistant text output can be copied normally, but the /compact summary specifically doesn't support text selection.
Environment
- Client: Claude Code VS Code native extension
- OS: Windows 11 Pro (10.0.26200)
Expected behavior
The /compact summary text should be selectable and copyable like regular chat output.
Actual behavior
The summary renders in a non-selectable format, so it can't be copied out.
