Feature request: configurable past-tense completion verbs
Feature Request
Add a settings.json config key to customize the past-tense verb shown in the completion message (e.g. \"Sautéed for 2m\") after Claude finishes a task.
Current behavior
The completion verb is randomly picked from a hardcoded list in the binary:
\\\\
["Baked", "Brewed", "Churned", "Cogitated", "Cooked", "Crunched", "Sautéed", "Worked"]
\\
There is no way to configure this.
Desired behavior
A completionVerbs key in settings.json mirroring the existing spinnerVerbs API:
\\\json\
{
"completionVerbs": {
"mode": "replace",
"verbs": ["Shipped", "Deployed", "Merged"]
}
}
\\
"mode": "replace"— use only the provided verbs"mode": "append"— add to the built-in set
Why
The spinnerVerbs setting already supports this pattern for present-tense verbs. Extending it to the completion message would give users consistent control over both states.
