Cmd+V paste broken in iTerm2 on 2.1.0

[marcbowes]

Description

After updating to 2.1.0, paste keyboard shortcuts no longer work in iTerm2 on macOS.

Behavior

• Cmd+V: Inserts literal 'v' instead of pasting
• Ctrl+V: Does not work
• Alt+V: Does not work
• Right-click paste: Works correctly

Environment

• Claude Code version: 2.1.0
• Terminal: iTerm2
• OS: macOS

Workaround

Downgrading to 2.0.76 resolves the issue.

Likely Cause

This appears to be a regression from the 2.1.0 change: "Added Cmd+V support for image paste in iTerm2 (maps to Ctrl+V)"

Does not work with Terminal or PowerShell on Windows either, cannot paste.

2.1.1 too on WSL2 Ubuntu on Windows Terminal

Same issue here on macOS with Russian keyboard layout (Ghostty terminal).

Both Ctrl+V (image paste) and Ctrl+C (abort/interrupt) don't work when the Russian layout is active (worked fine in 2.0.x).

Since the input layer sees Cyrillic 'м'/'с' instead of Latin 'v'/'c', the shortcuts are not recognized.

Version: 2.1.1 Downgrading to 2.0.76 confirms this is a 2.1.x regression.

I think it's something to do with Cmd specifically because other iTerm2 features like splits (which are bound to Cmd by default) also don't work anymore for me, unless I use the mouse.
