What issue are you seeing?
Shift+Enter is treated as Enter, and the message is immediately submitted instead of inserting a new line.
The issue occurs in both iTerm2 and the default macOS Terminal app, so it does not appear to be specific to a terminal emulator.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Start Codex CLI.
- Focus the prompt input.
- Press Cmd+R.
- Type a message.
- Press Shift+Enter.
What is the expected behavior?
Shift+Enter should insert a new line without submitting the message.
Additional information
It seems that Cmd+R itself may be causing the issue. Could you please confirm?
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reproducing the shortcut sequence in Codex CLI 0.154.0 on macOS, using both iTerm2 and Terminal.app: press Cmd+R, then Shift+Enter. Trace the CLI's terminal input handling from that reproduction and confirm that Shift+Enter inserts a newline rather than submitting the message after Cmd+R.
