claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Allow customization of animated thinking verbs (e.g. "Garnishing…") [1 participants]

TL;DR

Add a configuration option in settings.json to allow users to customize the list of verbs for the animated status text.

Guidance

• Identify the current hard-coded list of verbs in the Claude Code processing animation and determine how they are being rotated.
• Introduce a new configuration option in settings.json, such as "animationVerbs", to store a user-defined list of verbs.
• Update the animation logic to read from the new configuration option instead of the hard-coded list.
• Consider adding validation or sanitization for user-inputted verbs to ensure they are suitable for display.

Example

// settings.json example
{
  "animationVerbs": ["Creating...", "Imagining...", "Building..."]
}

Notes

The implementation details may vary depending on the specific technology stack and codebase of Claude Code.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by introducing the new configuration option, as it provides a flexible solution for users to customize their experience without requiring a full version upgrade.
