Description
I ran into a rendering bug in the TUI that I have not been able to reproduce reliably.
In one case, an assistant message appeared truncated, and the missing part only showed up after I sent my next reply.
This means I responded before I could actually see the full message.
Expected behavior:
- Assistant messages should render fully when they arrive
- Sending another reply should not be required for the rest of the previous message to appear
Actual behavior:
- One assistant message was temporarily truncated
- The rest of it only appeared after my next reply
Notes:
- I have only seen this once so far
- I do not currently have reliable reproduction steps
Environment:
-
macOS 15.6.1
-
Apple Silicon
-
terminals tested:
- Alacritty
- Ghostty
-
kit installed with:
go install github.com/mark3labs/kit/cmd/kit@latest

Research direction

Start by trying to reproduce the TUI rendering issue on the reported macOS and terminal environments, then trace the message-rendering path when an assistant response arrives. Done means assistant messages consistently render in full without requiring another reply.
