Description

**OS / shell:**

Xubuntu 24.04 / GNU bash, version 5.2.21(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
Alma Linux 9 / GNU bash, version 5.2.21(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

**Bug**

After exiting any interactive input mode, terminal does not output typed text until `reset` is run.

**Steps to Replicate**

Run `lw-cli auth init` and use the interactive yes or no prompt to input either selection. Upon exiting, the shell cursor will be static and will not show typed characters. Characters are still being accepted by the shell, and commands can be run. Running the `reset` command fixes terminal output. Running `clear` or other display modifying commands does not.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue through the `lw-cli auth init` interactive yes/no prompt on one of the reported Linux shells. Start by tracing that command's interactive input and terminal handling; done means the shell visibly echoes typed characters after exiting the prompt without requiring `reset`, while `clear` remains distinct.
