307307When you paste more than 800 characters or more than three lines into the prompt, Claude Code collapses the input to a placeholder such as `[Pasted text #1 +120 lines]` so the input box stays usable. In a terminal window shorter than 12 rows the line limit drops, so Claude Code collapses a three-line paste at 11 rows and any multi-line paste at 10 rows or fewer. Claude Code still sends the full content when you submit.

309When you delete with a word or line shortcut such as `Ctrl+W` or `Ctrl+K`, or with a vim delete through an `f`/`t` motion such as `df]`, and the deleted range reaches inside a placeholder, Claude Code removes the placeholder whole. You can paste the deletion back to restore it, with [`Ctrl+Y`](/docs/en/interactive-mode#text-editing) after `Ctrl+W`, `Ctrl+U`, or `Ctrl+K`, or with [`p` in NORMAL mode](/docs/en/interactive-mode#editing-normal-mode) after a vim delete.

311311Claude Code keeps the collapsed content under `~/.claude/paste-cache/`, so when you recall a prompt from [command history](/docs/en/interactive-mode#command-history) and resubmit it, Claude Code sends the full pasted content again, including in a later session, until the retention sweep removes the cache file.
