When switching back to the Claude Code terminal from the editor, the terminal auto-enters insert mode and scrolls to the bottom, losing the user's reading position. Add `terminal.auto_insert` config option (default: true) that when set to false, keeps the terminal in normal mode and preserves the scroll position. Closes coder#232 Signed-off-by: Thomas Kosiewski <tk@coder.com>
Supporting changes for the terminal.auto_insert feature (coder#232, coder#145): - README: document terminal.auto_insert (note that false also opens the terminal in Normal mode, since it gates start-insert too) - CHANGELOG: add [Unreleased] entry - types.lua: annotate ClaudeCodeTerminalConfig.auto_insert - fixtures/issue-232 + scripts/repro_issue_232.lua: env-selectable reproduction (snacks reproduces, native is the baseline) plus a headless regression harness that asserts the auto-insert BufEnter autocmd is absent when auto_insert=false Change-Id: I155f9896ba32a8522344e07b016e9e0854c41d9b Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Kosiewski <tk@coder.com>
