What issue are you seeing?
When using Codex CLI on macOS, the terminal output behaves normally — scrollback works, and the UI rendering is stable.
However, on Windows (especially when using Windows Terminal with WSL or PowerShell), I frequently encounter rendering issues:
- Scrollback does not work correctly (older output disappears or cannot be accessed)
- Output is sometimes overwritten or re-rendered incorrectly
- Text may appear duplicated or partially missing
- Scrolling during streaming output can cause content to be cut or misaligned
This issue appears consistently on Windows Terminal, but does not reproduce on macOS terminal environments (e.g., iTerm2 / default Terminal with similar configurations).
This suggests a platform-specific compatibility issue between Codex CLI TUI rendering and Windows terminal emulators.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Open Windows Terminal (PowerShell or WSL)
- Run codex
- Send a prompt that produces long output (longer than one screen)
- While output is streaming:
- Try scrolling up
- Or wait until output finishes and then scroll
- Observe:
- Earlier content is missing or cannot be scrolled back to
- Output may be overwritten, duplicated, or visually corrupted
Control experiment:
- Repeat the same steps on macOS (Terminal or iTerm2)
- Observe that:
- Scrollback works normally
- Output rendering is stable and consistent
