Bug Description
Hey Anthropic team, just wanted to reach out about Claude Code. I'm a developer from India and honestly, the current performance is getting pretty frustrating to deal with.The TypeScript terminal layer is causing massive idle CPU spikes and annoying terminal flickering whenever it's streaming.Since you guys already started moving Bun over to Rust, please go all the way with it. I'm requesting that you fully re-implement Claude Code as a pure, native Rust app. Getting rid of the JavaScript/TypeScript wrappers completely would give us the lightweight, lightning-fast terminal experience we actually need. Thanks!
