What's Wrong?

In version 2.0.64, the thinking indicator ("∴ Thinking…") and collapsed thinking blocks are no longer displayed in the terminal UI. This is a regression - both were visible in version 2.0.62.

What Should Happen?

Expected behavior

  • "∴ Thinking…" indicator should appear while Claude is thinking (as in v2.0.62)
  • Collapsed thinking block should be visible after response completes (as in v2.0.62)
