Regression: Shift+Enter sends prompt instead of inserting line break (macOS)

[sutaminajing40]

What version of Codex is running?

v0.41.0

Which model were you using?

gpt-5-codex

What platform is your computer?

Darwin 24.5.0 arm64 arm

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Hi, it looks like the issue described in #545 has reappeared.

Previously, Shift+Enter worked correctly and inserted a line break.
In the current latest version, however, pressing Shift+Enter sends the prompt instead of inserting a line break.

Environment

• OS: macOS

Steps to reproduce

1. Type some text in the prompt field.
2. Press Shift+Enter.
3. Instead of inserting a line break, the prompt is submitted.

Expected behavior
Shift+Enter should insert a line break, not submit the prompt.

This used to work until recently, so it appears to be a regression.

What is the expected behavior?

This happens for me too sometimes. Usually it's fixed if I quit and restart codex, so there's something buggy about the UI

so there's something buggy about the UI

something related to the terminal settings?

With 0.41, I see ctr+J in pycharm's terminal, but I have shift+enter in ghostty, at the same time 🫠
(brew install in macOS, just updated, for new codex instantiations)

This issue is for macOS but I'd like Shift+Enter to work on Linux as well. Is that a separate issue or is it supposed to work on Linux and isn't?

I'm on 0.53.0 on MacOS and it seems to work fine in iTerm2 but fails in Cursor.

Same in Linux Ubuntu. Please fix it.
