Install script appears hung — no progress feedback during binary download

UX Issue

The recommended install command appears to hang with no output:

curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

After Setting up Claude Code... there's a long silence while the binary downloads. With -fsSL suppressing curl's progress bar, users have no indication anything is happening and assume the script is hung.

Suggestion

Add progress feedback before the download step (around line 128 of bootstrap.sh):

echo "Downloading Claude Code ${version} for ${platform}..."

And optionally show the checksum verification step:

echo "Verifying download..."

The current script goes from the echo "Setting up Claude Code..." on line 150 straight into a silent binary download + checksum verification + install — all with zero output.

Environment

• macOS 15 (Sequoia), Apple Silicon
• Ran via curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash
• Download took long enough to appear stuck
