claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Cannot scroll up in Windows Terminal while Claude Code is running (regression since 2.1.x / Opus 4.7 release)

TL;DR

The issue can be potentially resolved by investigating the changes introduced in the Claude Code release that added Opus 4.7 support, which may be interfering with the terminal scrollback functionality.

Guidance

• Review the release notes and changelog for the Claude Code version 2.1.112 to identify potential changes that could be causing the scrolling issue.
• Investigate if there are any known issues or bugs reported in the Claude Code repository related to scrolling or Opus 4.7 support.
• Test the scrolling functionality with different terminal emulators or configurations to determine if the issue is specific to Windows Terminal.
• Consider reaching out to the Claude Code development team or community for further assistance, as this issue may require a fix or patch from their side.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to the interaction between Claude Code and the terminal emulator, rather than a specific code snippet.

Notes
