Problem Statement

I would like to request a small update to the loading/processing animation bar logic. Currently, the tool cycles through various terms (such as "clauding...") to indicate activity. I propose adding "smarmelling..." to this list of randomized status strings.

Priority

Low - Nice to have

Feature Category

Interactive mode (TUI)

Context / Motivation:

This addition serves as a humorous "Easter egg" referencing the cult Italian TV series Boris.

  • Cultural Reference: The term is an Anglicization of the neologism "smarmellare," popularized by the character René Ferretti.
  • Meaning: In the show, it refers to the practice of "blasting" the lights to shoot quickly, often sacrificing nuance for speed.
  • Relevance: Including "smarmelling..." acts as a fun, self-aware nod to the intense "behind-the-scenes" work the AI is doing to generate results quickly for the user.
