Bug Description
Add setting to control Edit tool diff display verbosity

Problem

When the Edit tool runs, the terminal always shows the full colored diff with all added/removed lines. For users who
prefer minimal output, this is noisy—especially for large edits.

Current behavior:
● Update(~/Projects/foo/package.json)
└ Added 10 lines, removed 8 lines
1 {
2 "name": "foo",
3 - "module": "index.ts",
3 "type": "module",
...

The summary line ("Added 10 lines, removed 8 lines") is already there—but the full diff always renders below it.

Proposed Solution

Add a diffDisplay setting with options:

  • "full" — Current behavior (default) …
