What happens if you add the following lines at the very top of ~/.zshrc?

typeset -p COLUMNS
stty size
sleep 1
typeset -p COLUMNS
stty size

typeset -p COLUMNS stty size sleep 1 typeset -p COLUMNS stty size

i get this when i lunch new terminal window

This shows that the TTY declares its dimensions as 80x24 for some time after being created, and then switches to reporting the correct dimensions. As the result, zsh prints the initial prompt that is 80 columns wide, and then repaints its 116-column version when the TTY dimensions "change".

This means that the issue is either with the terminal, or with the window manager.

Note that you've already reproduced the bug without powerlevel10k here: https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/issues/2808#issuecomment-2564427164. This test shows without a shadow of a doubt that the issue is not in powerlevel10k or even zsh. It's in the terminal or the window manager.
