Description

When navigating out of an individual agent's detail view back to the screen that lists all agents (FleetView / agent view home), the screen sometimes renders garbled/unviewable — leftover fragments of the previous view remain on screen and the list is unreadable. The only reliable way to restore it is to resize the terminal window, which forces a full clear-and-repaint (presumably via SIGWINCH). This makes moving between agents cumbersome.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.220 (latest at time of filing; claude update reports up to date)
  • Platform: Linux (kernel 5.4.0-216-generic), accessed over SSH
  • Shell: bash

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open the agents list / FleetView with multiple agents running.
  2. Enter one agent's detail view.
  3. Navigate back to the agents list.
  4. Intermittently, the list screen is garbled (overlapping/stale content) instead of a clean repaint.

Expected behavior

Returning to the agents list performs a full repaint of the screen.

Actual behavior

Stale content from the previous view persists; screen is unreadable until the terminal window is manually resized.

Notes

  • Symptom matches previously reported issues #58555 (FleetView layout broken after returning from a session) and #58579 (lines stack/overlap in agents view), but those were Windows-focused and this reproduces on Linux on v2.1.220, i.e. after the v2.1.183–v2.1.219 rendering fixes.
  • Have not yet confirmed whether CLAUDE_CODE_ALT_SCREEN_FULL_REPAINT=1 avoids it; happy to test and report back if useful.
