What's Wrong?

I'm using version 2.1.3.

The file completion truncation with ellipsis for @ characters is far too aggressive.

What Should Happen?

There's so much real estate on the screen. There's a few different options that could be better than what's currently happening right now:

• It should not use ellipsis until it's reached the actual edge of the terminal window.
• Not bother using ellipsis at all.
• Make sure that the truncated path has the basename of the path in it.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open Claude Code
2. Type @ to trigger auto-complete for a file with a really long path.
3. See a truncated path despite there being lots of space on the screen.
