What's Wrong?
When running in IntelliJ terminal, the IDE consumes 50-100% CPU and spams log full of:
2025-10-10 08:02:34,296 [ 311327] WARN - com.jediterm.terminal.emulator.JediEmulator - Unhandled Control Sequence (parsed: ESC[?2026h, raw: ESC[?2026h)
2025-10-10 08:02:34,296 [ 311327] WARN - com.jediterm.terminal.emulator.JediEmulator - Unhandled Control Sequence (parsed: ESC[?2026l, raw: ESC[?2026l)
messages.
As I figured out these are sync control sequances that helps prevent flickering. However this is not need for JediEmulator so it is skips/can't recognize. Becuase of bunch of logging, IDE consumes a lot of resources.
I know this problem not really related to Claude Code itself, but I think you guys will solve this problem way more faster than IntelliJ will be :D
What Should Happen?
Claude Code should filter these control sequences when TERMINAL_EMULATOR=JetBrains-JediTerm
