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 do not want them. It's annoying and distracting. I don't need AI to pretend it has a vocabulary. A simple word that TELLS me what is going on is what I want.

Proposed Solution

Display a word that conveys the context of what the AI is doing with some indication that the UI is not frozen

Alternative Solutions

none

Priority

Critical - Blocking my work

Feature Category

Interactive mode (TUI)

Use Case Example

all use cases. Flowery language distracts from the point of a tool that provides useful output.

Additional Context

The "honking", "pontificating", and litany of other gibberish words the UI presents is obnoxious
