Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.259
  • Terminal: VS Code integrated terminal, VS Code 1.134.0
  • OS: Linux (WSL2)
  • tui setting: "fullscreen"

Description
My last-sent message used to stay visible/pinned at the top of the terminal view while Claude's response streamed below it. This no longer happens — I have to scroll up to see what I last sent.

Related existing issues that may cover the same behavior: #60345, #50366, #36146.

Expected
The most recent user message stays visible (pinned or otherwise) while the response is being generated/read, consistent with past behavior.

Actual
No pinning/sticky behavior is visible; the last message scrolls out of view like any other terminal output.
