Odd. I don't have any problem like this myself. However, there are some
similar quirks that I've seen but haven't bothered to fix, which might
be related, so:

Does the input window appear in a slightly different size when it gets
mispositioned?

Are the input or terminal windows near the bottom of the screen, or the
Dock?

Which edge of the screen is your Dock on, and is it set to auto-hide?

MCP is a protocol for structured messages between mud clients and
servers. The most common use of it is to allow client-side editing of
blocks of text.
