Allow me to hide data shown in claude desktop I don't need (so I can declutter the UX and love you even more)

Problem Statement

Context

I'm a CEO using Claude Code daily as a personal AI operations system ΓÇö not a traditional IDE. My repo (~300 files) contains knowledge bases, scripts, and workflow configs. I typically have 10+ concurrent sessions open against the same repo. Max plan, Windows 11, Opus 4.6.

The problem

After connecting git, green/red diff stats (+N / -N) now appear on every session row in the sidebar and in the chat footer.

<img width="2560" height="1552" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/eaed2ff8-8a22-4d69-bbc6-6af2e69e2a58" />

These numbers are repo-level, not per-session ΓÇö so every session displays the identical value. In the screenshot you can see +26 -1 repeated across all 10 sessions.

Specific issues:

1. Same number repeated N times. Every session shares the same working tree, so the stat is identical everywhere. Displaying it once would be redundant ΓÇö displaying it 10+ times is noise.
2. Not actionable. There's no commit button. The only action offered is "Create PR," which doesn't fit direct-to-main workflows. To actually commit, I have to type a request in chat.
3. Doesn't reset after committing. After committing in one session, it jumped to +2647 -2 ΓÇö it tracks cumulative session changes, not uncommitted work. There's no user action that clears the number.
4. Confusing. I had to ask my AI assistant what these numbers meant. We went through three wrong theories before figuring it out. That's a UX red flag.
5. No way to hide them. I looked for a setting ΓÇö there isn't one.

What I'd want instead

Nothing would be better than what's there now.

But if the slot is going to exist ΓÇö with many concurrent sessions, my real problem is sessions going stale. Context gets bloated and Claude starts losing the thread. If that sidebar slot showed context window usage (e.g., "72%") with a click action to compact or signal "time to start fresh," that would be something I'd actually act on. A session health indicator, not a repo-level line count.

Who this affects

• Anyone using Claude Code for non-IDE workflows (ops, writing, knowledge management)
• Anyone with many concurrent sessions on one repo
• Anyone pushing directly to main instead of using a PR workflow

Request

At minimum: a setting to hide diff stats from the sidebar. Ideally: replace with something actionable, or show nothing.
