spinnerVerbs setting not honored after restart

Bug Report

OS: Windows 11 Pro

Description

The spinnerVerbs setting in ~/.claude/settings.json is not honored after restarting the application. The spinner continues to cycle through random words (e.g. "conbobulating") instead of displaying the configured static value.

Configuration

"spinnerVerbs": {
  "mode": "replace",
  "verbs": ["Working"]
}

Expected Behavior

Spinner should display only "Working" as configured.

Actual Behavior

After restart, spinner reverts to cycling through random animated words despite the setting being present and correct in settings.json.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Set spinnerVerbs with mode: replace and a single verb in ~/.claude/settings.json
2. Confirm it works in the current session
3. Restart the application
4. Observe spinner cycling through random words again
