Unclear The finding does not say which part of the dialog now handles keys and pasting.

What

When Claude Code asks for your permission to do something, it shows a dialog box. The outer box of that dialog no longer takes keyboard focus when it opens, and it no longer handles key presses or pasted text itself. It is now set so it cannot be focused (tabIndex: -1).

Why

Key presses and pastes inside the permission dialog are now handled by something else, not by the dialog's frame.
