Versions:

  • 0.96.0: OK
  • 0.97.0+: BUG
  • 0.98.0: BUG

Environment:

  • WSL2 Ubuntu 24.04.3 on Windows 10.0.26200.7705
  • install: npm -g @openai/codex (also reproduced on Windows npm install)

Steps:
1) Run codex interactive TUI.
2) Ask for a very long novel-length response (streaming).
3) The beginning/top of the assistant output gets truncated/disappears; cannot scroll/copy full message.

Expected: full output remains scrollable/copyable.
Actual: early part is truncated in the TUI during/after streaming.
