What's Wrong?
Mouse scrolling and arrow key navigation stopped working in Claude Code 2.1.239. This prevents scrolling through session history and using arrow keys for command-line editing.
What Should Happen?
Expected behavior:
- Mouse scroll wheel scrolls through session history
- Arrow keys allow navigation within the terminal
Actual behavior:
- Mouse scroll does nothing
- Arrow keys do nothing (Page Up/Page Down work as workaround)
