What version of Codex is running?

0.34

Which model were you using?

gpt-5

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26100.0 x64

What steps can reproduce the bug?

When copying text from any source and pasting it into the Codex terminal, the letter 'i' is consistently omitted from the pasted content. This occurs regardless of the source (e.g., web pages, text editors, other terminals).

Steps to Reproduce:

Copy any text containing the letter 'i' (e.g., "This is a test.")
Open the Codex terminal
Paste the text (Ctrl+V or right-click paste)
Observe missing 'i' characters in the output

What is the expected behavior?

The full text should paste exactly as copied, including all 'i' characters.

What do you see instead?

All instances of 'i' are removed from the pasted text (e.g., "This is a test" becomes "Ths s a test").

Turkey specific issue. Onscreen keyboard is the only workaround I found so far.
