When pasting an image into the prompt input, the input field stops accepting new text input for a long period afterward.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Paste an image into the Claude Code input (e.g. a screenshot).
  2. Try to type additional text right after.

Expected: input remains responsive immediately after paste.
Actual: input is unresponsive for an extended period after image paste.

Environment: macOS (Darwin 25.5.0), model: Sonnet 5.
