With both Gemini CLI and Antigravity CLI, when the chat agent is outputting its working to the terminal and moving onto next steps (particularly when auto-accept is switched on) I frequently need to scroll back to read the decisions made.

However when I scroll back, the terminal auto scrolls right back to the most recent (bottom-most) point in the output after a few seconds. I have to do the bizarre hack of jiggling the mouse scroll wheel in-place just to read the older text.

I found a plugin on these forums that gracefully addressed the same issue in Antigravity IDE, but that won’t work for the TUIs.

Is there a fix/plugin somewhere I have missed? For me this makes the UI unusable for in-depth work with a planning agent, so assuming it’s not fixable I’m looking at other UIs. I have no experience outside of Google’s two TUI’s so I’ll start with things I’ve heard about like Opencode and Hermes, that let me bring along my Google API keys.

Any help appreciated.

[SOLVED]  
Answering my own post. I switched to opencode.
