### Describe the bug
### Summary
In interactive mode, GitHub Copilot CLI renders normally at first, but after I submit a prompt the UI goes blank and no further output is visible.
This happens even with very short prompts that should return only a single sentence.
Non-interactive prompt mode with -p works normally, so the issue appears to be specific to the interactive terminal UI.
### Environment
- GitHub Copilot CLI version: 1.0.71
- OS: Windows
- Terminal: Windows Terminal
- GitHub product version: latest
### Affected version
GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.71.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
1. Open Windows Terminal.
2. Start Copilot CLI: copilot
3. Enter any prompt, including a short prompt such as: Reply with one short sentence only.
4. Observe that Thinking appears briefly.
5. The terminal UI then goes blank.
### Expected behavior
After submitting a prompt in interactive mode, Copilot CLI should continue showing Thinking and then render the response in the terminal.
### What actually happened
- Copilot CLI starts and renders normally.
- I enter a prompt.
- It shows Thinking.
- Then the screen turns blank.
- After the blank screen appears, I do not see the response or UI content anymore.
This also happens with very short prompts, including prompts that should only produce a one-sentence response.
### Additional context
I tried the following and still saw the same blank-screen behavior in interactive mode:
- Pressed Ctrl + L
- Pressed ?
- Entered /help
- Tried very short prompts with minimal output
- Tried --screen-reader mode: copilot --screen-reader
--screen-reader mode shows the same issue.
What does work
Non-interactive mode works correctly:
copilot -p "Say hello"
This returns output normally.
Beitragsleitfaden
Rechercherichtung
Beginne damit, das Problem mit `copilot` in Windows Terminal anhand einer kurzen Eingabeaufforderung zu reproduzieren, und vergleiche anschließend den interaktiven Modus mit `copilot -p "Say hello"` und `copilot --screen-reader`. Der Fix ist vollständig, wenn der interaktive Modus weiterhin Thinking anzeigt und die Antwort rendert, statt leer zu werden, während der nicht interaktive Modus weiterhin funktioniert.
