Hello,
I see this has already been reported by Nicolas here:
https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/910
I myself also wrote a report here:
https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/36765
(I admit I got too lazy to look for duplicates)
Anthropic's bot has identified two other related issues:
https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/29065 and
https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/2237
Shall we try to all comment on Nicolas' issue with the hope that it will
help raise its priority?
I can imagine that BRLTTY could cope with such simulated cursors but
it's not really satisfactory.
Also, I am under the impression that, as much as Claude Code has a
colorblind friendly mode, it could also have a screen reader friendly
mode where it wouldn't use that many embllishment character and perhaps
also have a more linear presentation, wiht less popping messages.
Thoughts?
