I’m trying to use a similar workflow, but when I attempt to use Claude code in vterm, I have issues.

My use case is resuming a session and not being able to scroll back to the past history. Otherwise if I start a new session, it works fine.

It’s probably related to me being on an old version of vterm, but I’m just wondering if you ever have come across this.

Definitely try ghostel, it's really solid.
