claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Selection deletion only removes single character in flicker-free mode [1 participants]

[{"error":"RangeError [ERR_CHILD_PROCESS_STDIO_MAXBUFFER]: stdout maxBuffer length exceeded\n at Socket.onChildStdout (node:child_process:484:14)\n at Socket.emit (node:events:508:28)\n at addChunk (node:internal/streams/readable:559:12)\n at readableAddChunkPushByteMode (node:internal/streams/readable:510:3)\n at Readable.push (node:internal/streams/readable:390:5)\n at Pipe.onStreamRead (node:internal/stream_base_commons:189:23)","timestamp":"2026-04-11T16:39:23.120Z"}]

TL;DR

The issue can be mitigated by adjusting the maxBuffer length for child processes to accommodate larger output.

Guidance

• The error message indicates a maxBuffer length exceeded error, suggesting that the current buffer size is too small to handle the output.
• To verify the issue, try reproducing the error with a smaller selection of text to see if the deletion works as expected.
• Consider increasing the maxBuffer length for child processes to a larger value to accommodate the output.
• Review the terminal and platform settings to ensure that they are properly configured for flicker-free mode.

Example

No code snippet is provided as it is not clearly supported by the issue.

Notes

The provided error message suggests a Node.js environment, but the issue description mentions a terminal and platform, indicating a potential interaction between the two. The solution may involve adjusting settings in either the Node.js environment or the terminal/platform configuration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Increase the maxBuffer length for child processes to mitigate the issue, as the root cause is likely related to the buffer size limitation.
