@justchokingaround By default the mappings are not silent. You can set vim.maps.<key>.silent to true and it will not appear in the command line.

In you case, it will be the following:

vim.maps.normal = {
    "<Esc>" = {
        action = ":noh<CR>";
        silent = true;
    };
};

This is intended behaviour, you can find the related docs with :help :map-silent in Neovim.
