Bug Description I have recently seen several problems with terminal handling on MacOS. I am using the standard terminal app that ships with MacOS. It has mostly been working fine, but since few days (or perhaps a week) ago I started noticing problems:

Some issues have been reported by other users and I have removed those issues from this report. However this one seems unique:

Random corruption of the text on the terminal. It appears that single characters are changed "randomly" or at least in a way I cannot concisely characterize.

There are additional usage only bugs I see, and I have not seen this one in other reports:

I suddently started seeing "Total cost:" with a $ number (currently showing $24.72). I am not using the API at all, I am a Claude Max 200 subscriber and in the last week I have only been using CC. Why am I being charged for API usage?

I am on the latest version of CC (>116). I am on the latest version of MacOS (26.3.1). Terminal is Version 2.15 (466)

Environment Info

  • Platform: darwin
  • Terminal: Apple_Terminal
  • Version: 2.1.118
  • Feedback ID: fd794cf2-d37b-4130-83c7-05ec3b737793

extent analysis

TL;DR

The random corruption of text on the terminal and unexpected "Total cost:" messages may be related to issues with the terminal app or the CC subscription, and verifying the subscription usage and checking for updates to the terminal app may help resolve the issue.

Guidance

  • Verify the CC subscription usage to ensure that the "Total cost:" message is not related to actual API usage.
  • Check the terminal app for any available updates, as the current version (2.15) may have known issues.
  • Investigate the error message "Request was aborted" to see if it is related to the terminal corruption issue.
  • Consider reaching out to the CC support team to clarify the "Total cost:" message and ensure that the subscription is being used correctly.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue is more related to configuration and subscription usage.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the MacOS terminal app or the CC subscription, and further investigation is needed to determine the root cause. The error message "Request was aborted" may be related to a network issue or a problem with the CC API.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Verify the subscription usage and check for updates to the terminal app, as this may resolve the issue without requiring a full fix.
