Description
After every file edit, Claude Code always displays a diff/change summary in the session. There is no setting, flag, or toggle to suppress or hide this output for users who prefer a cleaner conversation view.
Expected behavior
A config option (e.g. in settings.json or a /config toggle) to hide or collapse the per-edit diff summary.
Actual behavior
The diff is always shown with no opt-out.
Steps to reproduce
- Open Claude Code
- Ask it to edit any file
- The diff summary always appears — there is no way to prevent it
