claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Feature request: setting to disable the companion (Voidspinner) [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Adding a companionEnabled key to settings.json or a --no-companion CLI flag could allow users to opt out of the Voidspinner companion character.

Guidance

• Consider adding a companionEnabled key to settings.json to provide a configuration option for disabling the companion character.
• Introduce a --no-companion CLI flag as an alternative way to opt out of the companion character.
• Evaluate the current --bare flag to determine if its behavior can be modified to only suppress the companion character without disabling other features.
• Assess the impact of disabling the companion character on the overall user experience and functionality.

Example

{
  "companionEnabled": false
}

This example shows how the settings.json file could be updated to include the companionEnabled key.

Notes

The introduction of the companionEnabled key or --no-companion flag would require updates to the application's configuration parsing and CLI flag handling.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by adding a companionEnabled key to settings.json or introducing a --no-companion CLI flag, as this would provide users with a simple way to opt out of the companion character without sacrificing core functionality.
