Problem Statement
Two issues previously proposed this, but were incorrectly closed:
- https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/16086 - Add cursor style configuration
- https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/10215 - Customize input text color and cursor style
As we see here, there's interest in customising cursor style: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/7990#issuecomment-3455579821
Proposed Solution
Flags in settings.json and Claude Code /settings for type of cursor (e.g. bar). Refer to the above-referenced issues for more concrete recommendations
