[Bug] Claude Code Persistently Erases Previous Context Between Tasks

Bug Description
Claude continuously erases text each time it goes to a new task. This is an old bug that has returned from the early days and it makes the pathetic level of problem solving 100X more maddening. Please fix it. I at this point have no choice but to leave yoru product. It's just dismal.
