Is there an existing issue for this?
Current Behavior
When typing quickly into the Control input on the Tasks page in Chrome, keystrokes appear out of order or are dropped. The text rendered in the input does not match what was typed — characters get rearranged, or some characters never appear at all. The faster the typing, the more noticeable the issue.
Relevant Log Output
Expected Behavior
Typed characters appear in the input in the order they were entered, regardless of typing speed.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a Task in the Coder UI in Chrome.
- Click into the Control input.
- Type a sentence at a normal-to-fast pace.
- Observe that characters appear out of order or some are missing.
Environment
- Host OS: macOS, Chrome
- Coder version: latest as of 2026-05-19 (Coder Cloud)
Additional Context
Reported by a developer at Altana:
The "Control" box for Tasks doesn't work if you type fast on chrome and gets your keystrokes out of order.
Filed on behalf of the Altana DX team; tracking internally as DX-1089.
Possibly related: #23418 ("Textarea parameters lose characters during typing on Create Workspace page") described the same symptom on a different page, with a root cause of a fully controlled React input being overwritten by a stale WebSocket echo of the user's earlier value. The Tasks Control input may exhibit the same pattern on a different code path (the fix in #23418 was scoped to useSyncFormParameters / Create Workspace).
