What issue are you seeing?
When prompting the agent, escape sequences matching those described in this closed issue are randomly inserted at the cursor, e.g. [110;1:3u
What steps can reproduce the bug?
I believe the bug may be related to two codex agents in different split panes of the same window.
- Split Ghostty window into four full-width panes, one on top of the other.
- Panes 1 and 3 are codex agents working on separate projects/repositories
- Pane 2 and 4 are surfaces for user commands relating to the repos being worked on in 1 and 3 respectively.
- Prompt the agent in Pane 1
- Begin prompting the agent in Pane 3 – it appears that the reasoning in Pane 1 (possibly the conclusion of this, specifically) causes escape sequences to be inserted at the cursor.
What is the expected behavior?
For this to not happen.
