 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.18.11] - 2026-10-12
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed the viewport going blank above the status line and input box when a tall live block (task output, streaming tool output) collapsed with `clearOnShrink` off: the TUI now replays the frame when padding to the committed frontier would leave no transcript row on screen.
