+# scroll-fix
+
+Fixes the terminal scroll-to-top regression in Claude Code. Works on **all platforms** (Windows, macOS, Linux) and **all terminals**.
+
+## Problem
+
+Claude Code's Ink renderer uses cursor-up (`\x1b[{n}A`) sequences to clear previous output before redrawing. When the output exceeds the viewport height, the cursor moves above the visible area and the terminal viewport follows it — snapping to the top of scrollback on every re-render.
+
+**Root cause:** `eraseLines()` generates N cursor-up sequences where N = number of previously rendered lines. Terminals follow cursor position changes, including during synchronized output blocks.
+
+**Upstream issues:**
+- [microsoft/terminal#14774](https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/14774) — `SetConsoleCursorPosition` always scrolls viewport to cursor
+- [anthropics/claude-code#33814](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/33814) — Forces scroll to top when outputting code
+- [anthropics/claude-code#826](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/826) — Console scrolling top of history
+- [anthropics/claude-code#11801](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/11801) — Terminal scrolls to the top after each response
+- [anthropics/claude-code#3648](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/3648) — Terminal scrolling uncontrollably
+- [anthropics/claude-code#34794](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/34794) — Terminal scrolls to top during agent execution
+
+## Fix
+
+Intercepts `process.stdout.write` and tracks cumulative cursor-up within each synchronized output block (`\x1b[?2026h` … `\x1b[?2026l`). Clamps total cursor-up to `process.stdout.rows` so the cursor stays within the visible viewport.
+
+### Additional feature: Ctrl+6 freeze toggle
+
+Press **Ctrl+6** to freeze all Ink re-render output. Press again to unfreeze and replay buffered frames. This allows scrolling through terminal history without the viewport being yanked back.
+
+## Installation
+
+### Option 1: Node.js preload (recommended)
+
+```bash
+# Set in your shell profile (.bashrc, .zshrc, etc.)
+export NODE_OPTIONS="--require /path/to/plugins/scroll-fix/scroll-fix.cjs"
+
+# Then run claude normally
+claude
+```
+
+### Option 2: Patch cli.js directly
+
+```bash
+node plugins/scroll-fix/scripts/install.js /path/to/cli.js
+```
+
+To remove:
+```bash
+node plugins/scroll-fix/scripts/install.js --uninstall /path/to/cli.js
+```
+
+### Option 3: Install as Claude Code plugin
+
+```bash
+claude /plugin install /path/to/plugins/scroll-fix
+```
+
+## How it works
+
+1. **Sync block tracking**: Detects `\x1b[?2026h` (synchronized output start) and resets the cursor-up counter
+2. **Cursor-up clamping**: Each `\x1b[{n}A` sequence consumes from a budget equal to `process.stdout.rows`. When budget hits 0, further cursor-up sequences are suppressed
+3. **Budget restoration**: Newlines (`\n`) and cursor-down (`\x1b[{n}B`) restore the budget, allowing the next render cycle to clear properly
+4. **Sync block end**: `\x1b[?2026l` resets the counter
+
+This ensures the cursor never leaves the visible viewport during re-renders, preventing the terminal from snapping to the top.
+
