Problem Statement
I spend my entire working day talking to multiple incarnations of claude-code. Having themes would be nice. I can tailor response dialect with a simple Claude.md line like "you are a new yorker -- you speak quick and to the point".
But there is no way to replace "Percolating" with something that persona would use.
Everything else I stare out all day has themes....
Proposed Solution
Rather than hard coding a list, add a config item to the json that allows a list. if you really want to get vigilant about it, also have an edit-list syntax (e.g. remove "Percolating" and add "Percolatin'")
Alternative Solutions
Prebuilt themes?
