Results for the /cost command do not render well in dark mode terminals. This is not an issue with other commands such as /help.

Mind double checking you have dark mode set correctly?
claude config set --global theme darkor/configthen setthemetodark.I confirmed that I am already using the claude
darktheme. I am using in iTerm2 with the SynthWave '84 color theme if that helps.EDIT: This might be an issue with my iTerm2 color config. I don't see the issue in regular iTerm using a darker default profile like "Pro".
I am seeing the same thing with the dark theme:

For reference these are my terminal settings (Gnome terminal on Debian)

They are slightly more legible if I change my terminal theme to something like solarized dark but it would be preferable to be able to edit claude's dark theme and tweak the colours.
(Superb tool otherwise. Thank you. This is a very minor gripe!)
@bcherny This is mostly a client-side issue. However, looking at the minified code, it can be fixed by replacing the only two
.greyreferences with.secondaryText. The.secondaryTextcolor is used more frequently in the app and displays correctly even if the user’s terminal profile is configured with a very dark "bright black."Should be fixed in the latest version!
