Support Chinese (zh-CN) localization for UI strings like "thinking"
Open 💬 2 comments Opened Jun 24, 2026 by 3148484429
When language is set to "zh-CN" in settings.json, the UI still displays English strings such as "thinking" and "thinking for Xs".
Expected behavior: These UI strings should be localized to Chinese, e.g. "思考中" / "思考了 X 秒".
Steps to reproduce:
- Set
"language": "zh-CN"in~/.claude/settings.json - Observe that "thinking" status text remains in English
It would be great to have localized UI strings for at least zh-CN and other major languages.
