What's Wrong?

ONE of the problems is i cant just copy one bug to send it now copies the full message,,,SORRY

Bug Report 1:

Title: Idle indicator keeps flashing/glowing when Claude is not processing

Description: The star/activity indicator in the Claude Code terminal continues to flash and glow in and out even when Claude is completely idle with no tasks running. Previously the indicator would stop when Claude was idle. This behavior started on April 15, 2026. Restarting the terminal does not fix it (tried 3 times). Updated to latest version via npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code — issue persists.

Expected behavior: Indicator should be static/off when Claude is idle.

Actual behavior: Indicator continuously flashes regardless of activity state.

Environment: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200, Claude Code latest version

Bug Report 2:

Title: Cannot copy a single sentence from Claude's output — selects entire message block

Description: When highlighting a single sentence or paragraph in Claude's response to copy it, the entire message block gets selected instead. There is no way to select and copy just a portion of a response. This forces users to copy the full response and manually trim what they need.

Expected behavior: Users should be able to highlight and copy any portion of Claude's output.

Actual behavior: Selection snaps to the entire message block.

Environment: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200, Claude Code latest version

Bug Report 3:

---Title: Token consumption continues when Claude is idle / not working...never happend before and i would leave on over night you can certainly see my token use

Description: Claude appears to consume tokens even when not actively working on any task. The user had to repeatedly instruct Claude to stop, but the activity indicator kept showing processing. Tokens were billed with no productive output being generated.

Expected behavior: No tokens consumed when Claude is idle and has no pending tasks.

Actual behavior: Tokens appear to be consumed during idle periods.

Environment: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200, Claude Code latest version

Bug Report 4:

Title: Context compaction permanently destroys user-uploaded images

Description: When a conversation hits context limits and compaction occurs, images and screenshots previously sent by the user are permanently lost. Claude cannot re-read or reference them after compaction. The user must re-send images, which wastes time and tokens. The text summary of compacted content does not preserve image data.

Expected behavior: Images should either be preserved through compaction or stored in a way that allows Claude to re-access them.

Actual behavior: Images are permanently lost after compaction. Claude reports "I can't scroll back and re-read images."

Environment: Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200, Claude Code latest version

Bug Report 5:

Title: Chrome MCP blocks financial sites with no user override option

Description: The Claude in Chrome MCP extension blocks all interaction with financial sites (e.g. client.schwab.com) even when the user explicitly drags the tab into the Claude tab group. Every tool (screenshot, read_page, get_page_text, javascript_tool, find) returns "This site is blocked."

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issues reported seem to be related to the latest version of Claude Code, and a potential fix could involve waiting for an update or seeking assistance from the development team to address the various bugs and regressions introduced.

Guidance

  1. Verify Version: Ensure that the latest version of Claude Code (Version 2.1.110) is indeed the cause of these issues by checking the release notes for any known bugs or regressions.
  2. Check for Updates: Regularly check for updates to Claude Code, as the development team may release patches or new versions that address these issues.
  3. Report Issues: Since the user has already reported these issues, continue to engage with the development team to provide more details or clarification if requested.
  4. Workaround for Token Consumption: Manually stop Claude when not in use to prevent unnecessary token consumption, as a temporary workaround until the issue is fixed.
  5. Image Preservation: For the context compaction issue, consider resending images as needed or exploring alternative methods of preserving image data outside of Claude's context limits.

Example

No specific code example is applicable here, as the issues seem to be related to the functionality of the Claude Code application itself rather than user-written code.

Notes

  • The issues reported are diverse and suggest a range of problems with the current version of Claude Code, from UI/UX issues like the idle indicator and text selection, to functional issues like token consumption and image preservation.
  • Given the variety of issues, it's possible that not all can be addressed with a single fix or update, and some may require specific patches or changes to how Claude Code operates.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Given the nature of the issues, which seem to be regressions or new bugs in the latest version of Claude Code, the best immediate action is to apply workarounds where possible (like manually stopping Claude when not in use) and wait for an update from the development team that addresses these issues.
