Bug Description
When a background process is running, it's very difficult to scroll up and read earlier output. Even if the agent isn't doing anything at that moment, the view keeps jumping back to the latest line whenever new output appears. This makes it frustrating to review previous logs or refer to earlier messages, because the scroll position doesn't stay where I left it.
