Bug Description

After updating to v2.1.104 (April 12, 2026), typing Hebrew (RTL) text in the chat input causes each letter to appear on a new line instead of forming words. This was not an issue before the update.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Claude Code
  2. Switch keyboard to Hebrew input
  3. Type any Hebrew text in the chat input field

Expected Behavior

Hebrew letters should appear inline, forming words normally.

Actual Behavior

Each Hebrew letter drops to a new line.

Workaround

Type Hebrew text in an external editor and paste it into the chat input.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.104
  • OS: Linux 6.17.0-20-generic
  • Language: Hebrew (RTL)

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue with Hebrew text appearing on new lines in the chat input may be resolved by adjusting the text rendering or input handling in Claude Code version 2.1.104.

Guidance

  • Verify if the issue persists when typing Hebrew text in other input fields outside of Claude Code to isolate the problem.
  • Check if there are any updates or patches for Claude Code version 2.1.104 that address text input or RTL language support.
  • Test the workaround of typing Hebrew text in an external editor and pasting it into the chat input to confirm its effectiveness.
  • Consider reporting the issue to the Claude Code development team for further investigation and potential fixes.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not imply a specific code-related fix.

Notes

The cause of the issue is uncertain, but it may be related to changes in text rendering or input handling in Claude Code version 2.1.104. The workaround provides a temporary solution, but a permanent fix may require updates to the software.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround of typing Hebrew text in an external editor and pasting it into the chat input, as it provides a reliable temporary solution until a potential fix is released.
