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
This is afollow-up to #25095.
With prefersReducedMotion: true in ~/.claude/settings.json, the shimmer effect and symbol cycling are suppressed as documented, but the blinking dot in the status line still blinks.
Proposed Solution
I would love to have the ability to also stop this blinking, either without changing settings.json further or by having to add a new field.
Alternative Solutions
The current work around is to shift focus to other windows.
Priority
Low - Nice to have
Feature Category
Interactive mode (TUI)
Use Case Example
I would use it all the time and this would improve my work flow with Claude.
