Expected Behavior
The screen should not flicker lol
Actual Behavior
It only happens like 10-20% of the time, but its one of those issues I faced with claude cli few months back, randomly it would run into this phase and I would do whole resize of the UI, if the changes were dropping really fast in a smaller terminal, at times even expanding the terminal wouldn't help. Not sure if its the same issue it might help

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the intermittent flicker in Plan Mode on macOS with VSCode and zsh, using the attached video and terminal-resize behavior as context; done means the screen remains stable while changes arrive quickly, including in a smaller terminal.
