I thought I was the only person going crazy by the new default behavior not showing the file names! Please don't expect users to understand your product details and config options in such detail, it was working well before, let it remain. Or at least show some message like "to view file names, do xyz" in the ui for a few days after such a change.
While we're here, another thing that's annoying: the token counter. While claude is working, it read some files, makes an edit, let's say token counter is at 2k tokens, I accept the edit, now it starts counting very fast from 0 to 2k and then shows normal inference speed changes to 2.1k, 2.3k etc. So wanted to confirm: is that just some UI decision and not actually using 2k tokens again? If so, it would be nice to have it off, just continue counting where you left off.
Another thing: is it possible to turn off the words like finagling and similar (I can't remember the spelling of any of them) ?

- fabiogaliano 7mo agoI remember they shipped a feature so that’s configurable.
- rob 7mo agoYou should be able to do something like this: "spinnerVerbs": { "mode": "replace", "verbs": ["Thinking"] } https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#available-settings https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings#available-settings
- bostonvaulter2 7mo agoThank you for the config and the link, that's very much appreciated!
- verelo 7mo agoHow absurd this is an option, but I’ll be using this config too.
- topherhunt 7mo agoI replaced my spinner verbs with thought-provoking Yodaese so my claude sessions are constantly making me think about my life decisions. Loving it. https://gist.github.com/topherhunt/b7fa7b915d6ee3a7998363d12dc8c842 https://gist.github.com/topherhunt/b7fa7b915d6ee3a7998363d12...
- munksbeer 7mo ago> I want to just always say a single thing like “thinking” As a counterview, I like the whimsical verbs. I'll be sticking with them. But nice to see there is an option.
- sincerely 7mo agoI don't want my tools to make jokes, I want them to work.
