What
On Windows, when Claude Code first puts the terminal into raw mode it now writes a sequence disabling win32-input-mode (DEC private mode 9001), alongside the existing bracketed-paste, focus and theme sequences. Terminals that had it on will send normal VT input instead.
Details
Platform-limited: only written when the platform check reports windows. No flag.
Only the disable sequence is built; there is no enable counterpart in the bundle.
Evidence
WIN32_INPUT_MODE: 9001
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
