Description

Hi, I noticed a bug when trying the webshell feature

When pressing [tab], a autocomplete will happen, but the characters won't display:

After pressing [tab], the black space is presented, pressing enter will yield an error unknown name.

I am on version 0.13.0

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Reproduce the WebShell autocomplete failure on version 0.13.0, then trace tab completion from input handling through the displayed output. Done means the completed characters appear after pressing Tab and pressing Enter no longer produces an unknown-name error.
