[FEATURE] Windows Terminal: No visual indicator when waiting for user confirmation/permission

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

Environment

• OS: Windows 10/11
• Terminal: Windows Terminal
• Claude Code version: 2.1.63

Problem
When Claude Code is waiting for user confirmation (e.g., requirement clarification, permission requests), there is no
clear visual indicator in Windows Terminal. This makes it easy to miss that the tool is waiting for input.

Expected Behavior
Similar to Cursor/Codex, there should be a visual indicator such as:

• Terminal tab flashing/blinking
• Taskbar icon notification
• Terminal title change
• System notification

Current Behavior
No visual feedback when Claude Code is waiting for user input, requiring users to constantly monitor the terminal
window.

Impact

• Easy to miss permission requests
• Poor user experience when multitasking
• Workflow interruption

Proposed Solution

Add Windows Terminal-specific notifications:

1. Flash terminal tab when waiting for input
2. Update terminal title with "[Waiting]" prefix
3. Optional: Windows toast notification
