Problem Statement

When I ask for a change to a plan, Claude shows the whole plan again. I have to re-read all of it to find what changed.

Proposed Solution

In plan mode, the left and right arrow keys cycle through three views:

  1. Full: the whole plan, as it is today.
  2. Diff only: just what changed since the previous turn.
  3. Both: the whole plan, with unchanged parts greyed out and changed parts in the normal text color. Should be default IMHO.

Why: On long plans I only need to judge what changed. Greyed context keeps my place in the plan without making me re-read it.
