German status line: "Läuft einem Befehl" — wrong case and wrong verb for "Running a command"

What happened

With the UI language set to German, the status line while a tool call is in flight reads „Läuft einem Befehl".

What's wrong

Two errors in one string:

  • laufen is intransitive and takes no object at all — the transitive sense of English run was translated with the intransitive German verb.
  • The object was kept anyway and ended up in the dative (einem), which nothing in the sentence licenses.

Expected

„Führt einen Befehl aus"

Other status lines in the same view (e.g. „Dachte 3 s nach") are fine, so this looks isolated to the "Running a command" label.
