Feature request: Allow customization of update reminder notification
Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened Apr 10, 2026 by garthtee Closed May 24, 2026
Feature Request
The "Claude update available" reminder shown at the bottom of the Claude Code screen is hardcoded and not user-configurable.
Desired Behavior
Allow users to customize the update reminder display — for example, to show a compact emoji (e.g. ⬆️) instead of the full text banner. This would be especially useful for users who are already on a frequent update cadence and find the full banner distracting.
Suggested Implementation
A setting in settings.json such as:"updateNotification": "compact" or "updateNotification": "emoji"
Or integration with the existing statusLine configuration so users can control how update availability is surfaced.
