Problem Statement

While thinking, Claude Code will provide a nonsense word like "Skedaddling". This set of words does not include "Encabulating" but clearly should.

The Turbo/Retro/Hyper Encabulator has been a running engineering joke since 1946... if any reader of this issue has not watched the videos, they should do that before progressing any further.

See The Wikipedia page for details and links to videos.

Proposed Solution

Add "Encabulating" to the thinking words. There are many other words and phrases from the series that could also be incorporated, but "Encabulating" would be the minimum viable product.

Alternative Solutions

Keep being less awesome than you could be.

Priority

Low - Nice to have

Feature Category

Interactive mode (TUI)

Use Case Example

When watching the spinner while Claude is thinking, my day would be come more awesome if Claude said it was encabulating.
