[Feature Request] Add option to show Claude's thinking by default without toggling
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Dec 24, 2025 by NealMcConachieWork Closed Dec 28, 2025
Bug Description
I hate having to press ctrl+o to toggle visibility of Claude's thinking. I really want to be able to see the stream-of-consciousness thinking because it helps me learn better how my prompts are effective or not, and to preempt mistakes that Claude is about to make, without having to wait for Claude to try something that won't work.
