Quell Proxy Fixes Claude Code Scroll-Jumping on Windows
Quell is a small Rust proxy that fixes Claude Code's scroll-jumping issue on Windows. When Claude Code streams long responses, it uses synchronized output (DEC Mode 2026) and triggers full screen redraws that include clear-screen sequences, resetting your scroll position and causing the terminal to jump to the top.
How Quell Works
Quell sits between your terminal and Claude Code, detecting full-redraw sync blocks and stripping the clear-screen sequences before forwarding the output. Everything else passes through unchanged, keeping your scroll position stable.
Features
- Scroll position preservation - Prevents terminal from jumping to top during long Claude Code responses
- Shift+Enter for newlines - Instead of needing Alt+Enter (requires Windows Terminal 1.25+)
- Security filtering - Strips clipboard access attempts, dangerous URL schemes (ssh://, javascript://), and terminal query attacks from AI output
- Full Unicode support - Emoji, CJK characters, and box-drawing characters render correctly
Limitations
- Windows only - Uses Windows ConPTY, so macOS/Linux not supported yet
- Not a new terminal - Transparent proxy that wraps your existing terminal
- v0.1.0 - Early version with potential edge cases
Technical Details
Single executable with no configuration required. No network access or telemetry. MIT licensed. The tool was built with Claude Code itself.
