Problem

The TUI input area height is hardcoded to a maximum of 8 visual lines:

return min(max(visual_lines, 1), 8)  # cli.py:8423

This makes long prompts feel cramped — users can't see enough of their text at once, especially when working with multi-paragraph prompts or when paste collapse is disabled.

Solution

Add a config option display.input_max_height (default: 8) that controls the max visual lines for the input area.

# cli.py
def _input_height():
    ...
    return min(max(visual_lines, 1), CLI_CONFIG.get('display', {}).get('input_max_height', 8))

Config

Notes

• The input area still grows dynamically with content, just with a configurable ceiling
• A reasonable max of 50 prevents the input from consuming the entire terminal
• Minimum of 1 ensures the input is always visible
