Claude Code now detects when VS Code 1.123/1.124 would corrupt non-ASCII characters pasted via OSC 52 clipboard integration, and displays a warning.

Details
  • Checks for the known mojibake bug in those specific VS Code versions.
  • If the clipboard content contains non-ASCII characters and the OSC 52 bug is present, displays: "VS Code 1.123/1.124 will mojibake this paste — update to ≥1.125".
  • No action needed once you update VS Code.
Evidence

New clipboard warning function (search for "VS Code 1.123/1.124 will mojibake this paste")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
