Problem Statement

When claude gives you terminal commands, and they are multiline - they cannot be copy and pasted into the terminal due to natural formatting restrictions of the claude code app. You have to laboriously copy the multiline command process it to single line.

For example, I just copied this from claude output:

  export PYTHONPATH=/data/pulkitag/hamer_diffusion_policy_project/projects/WiLoR-mini:/data/pulkitag/hamer_diffusion_policy_project/projects/WiLoR-mini/hands23:$PYTHONPATH && export                 
  PATH=/data/scratch-oc40/pulkitag/rli14/bin:$PATH && eval "$(micromamba shell hook --shell=bash)" && micromamba activate --prefix=/data/pulkitag/hamer_diffusion_policy_project/venvs/wilor_mini_venv
   && python -u data_processing/paper_plot_gen/generate_collage/visualize_three_d_keypoints.py         

It has many linebreaks. This breaks the flow when needing to constantly readjust the commands claude gives to run them

Proposed Solution

Give a button to "copy" a terminal command as a one-liner, properly formatted, directly into keyboard. using the current claude text interface will not work.
