Error Message

Error Messages/Logs

Code Example

Labels render on the left as expected, but each value is split into a vertical strip of one character per line, despite ~150+ columns of horizontal space being free. Appears to be a layout bug that squeezes the value column to width=1.

Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

In the /status dialog, the Status tab renders all values broken down to one character per line, stacked vertically, even on a wide terminal. The other tabs (Config, Usage, Stats) render correctly in the same session.

What Should Happen?

Each field (Version, Session name, Session ID, Login method, Email, Model, MCP servers, Setting sources) shows its value on the same line as the label, wrapping only if needed.

Labels render on the left as expected, but each value is split into a vertical strip of one character per line, despite ~150+ columns of horizontal space being free. Appears to be a layout bug that squeezes the value column to width=1.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Launch Claude Code from PowerShell 7.6 on Windows 11 (terminal window maximized, 183×30).
  2. Run /status.
  3. Look at the default Status tab.

  1. Switch to Config, Usage, Stats — these render correctly.

Additional Information

  • Only the Status tab is affected. Config / Usage / Stats all render fine in the same session, which rules out a global width-detection problem.
  • Reproduced on multiple machines by several teammates on the same version, so it does not depend on a specific local setup.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can likely be fixed by adjusting the layout settings or CSS styling for the Status tab in the /status dialog to properly utilize the available horizontal space.

Guidance

  • Review the CSS or layout configuration for the Status tab to identify any styles or settings that may be causing the values to be rendered as a vertical strip of one character per line.
  • Compare the layout settings of the Status tab with the other tabs (Config, Usage, Stats) to identify any differences that may be contributing to the issue.
  • Check for any recent changes to the layout or styling of the Status tab in the version history, as the issue is reported to be a regression from a previous version.
  • Test the rendering of the Status tab in different terminal sizes and configurations to see if the issue is specific to certain environments.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more information about the implementation details of the /status dialog and the Status tab. However, the fix may involve modifying CSS styles or layout settings to properly handle the rendering of values in the Status tab.

Notes

The issue appears to be specific to the Status tab and does not affect the other tabs, which suggests that the problem may be related to the unique layout or styling of this tab. The fact that the issue is a regression from a previous version also suggests that a recent change may have introduced the problem.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by adjusting the layout settings or CSS styling for the Status tab to properly utilize the available horizontal space, as the root cause of the issue is likely related to the rendering of this specific tab.
