Problem Statement

The desktop app's Claude Code UI used to match the Claude chat design. Clean message bubbles, readable backgrounds, the whole reason I used the desktop app instead of the terminal.

The new desktop version mimics the terminal instead. User messages are blue for some reason, the dark mode backgrounds are much darker and less polished, and overall the design feels like a clear downgrade from what was there before.

Please bring back the chat-style interface for the desktop app, or at least offer it as a theme option. The terminal already exists for people who want the terminal look. The desktop app was valuable to me precisely because it didn't look like that.

Proposed Solution

Bring back the old design as an option.
