[FEATURE] Ask for confirmation before compaction screen clearing
Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
- [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)
Problem Statement
I find it very frustrating to have the CLI current screen output flushed at auto-compaction time, while I'm reading it...
Proposed Solution
There should be some option to give the user a chance to control it, like "auto-compaction time reached - press Enter to continue" (or even an option to provide a prompt as with the /compact command).
Alternative Solutions
Apart from manually grepping into history jsonl files, I'm not aware of an alternative, but maybe I am missing something.
Priority
High - Significant impact on productivity
Feature Category

Use Case Example
I'm reading claude's output during a complex task, auto-completion % decreases and reaches 0%, then the whole screen is suddenly reset, this is very frustrating.
