claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Streaming char count should display in tool name header, not inline with content [1 participants]

TL;DR

Move the streaming indicator from the content parameter to the tool name/header section to prevent visual disruption during streaming.

Guidance

• Identify the code responsible for rendering the tool name/header section and the content parameter value.
• Modify the rendering logic to display the streaming indicator next to the tool name instead of replacing the content parameter value.
• Update the CSS/layout to accommodate the new position of the streaming indicator, ensuring it does not overlap with other elements.
• Verify that the input preview area remains free to render progressively or remains blank until the streaming is complete.

Example

// Before
Write File  
  input
  path: reports/promo-video-research.md
  content: [streaming: 12,263 chars]

// After
Write File  [streaming: 12,263 chars]  
  input
  path: reports/promo-video-research.md
  content: ...

Notes

This solution assumes that the rendering logic is modular and can be easily modified. If the codebase is complex, additional refactoring may be necessary to achieve the desired outcome.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Modify the rendering logic to display the streaming indicator next to the tool name, as this approach addresses the specific issue without requiring a full overhaul of the system.
