I would really like for them to add the option to constantly display how much context is left before compression or a new session.

I haven't tried this, but looks like it might be possible to display it in the status line. https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1mlhx2j/comment/n...

Looks like it shows now when the remaining context is < 50%, which is a welcome change to the 15% when it previously would appear.

Something I realized about this category of tool (I call them "terminal agents" but that already doesn't work now there's an official VS Code extension for this - maybe just "coding agents" instead) is that they're actually an interesting form of general agent . Claude Code, Codex CLI etc can effectively do anything that a human could do by typing commands into a computer. They're incredibly dangerous to use if you d…

One thing I really like using them for is refactoring/reorganizing. The tedious nature of renaming, renaming all implementations, moving files around, creating/deleting folders, updating imports exports, all melts away when you task an agent with it. Of course this assumes they are good enough to do them with quality, which is like 75% of the time for me so far.

You can find the revamped prompt on github[1], or on twitter summarized by my bot[2]. [1] https://github.com/marckrenn/cc-mvp-prompts/compare/v1.0.128... [2] https://x.com/CCpromptChanges/status/1972709093874757976

This is excellent. Thanks for sharing this.

Just use `claude update` if you already have it. Unfortunately, they removed Plan mode, when I could use Opus for planning and Sonnect for coding. Though I will see how this pans out.

I am ended up not using this option anyway. I am using B-MAD agents for planning and it gets into a long-running planning stream, where it needs permission to execute steps. So you end up running the planning in the "accept edits" mode.

I use Opus to write the planning docs for 30 min, then use Sonnet to execute them for another 30 min.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

> why does it default to full screen? Pardon my ignorance, but what does this mean? It's a terminal app that has always expanded to the full terminal, no? I've not noticed any difference in how it renders in the terminal. What am i misunderstanding in your comment?

A tui does not have to start full screen, v1 of claude did not take over the entire terminal, it would only use a bit at the bottom and scroll up until it was full screen. I just downgraded to v1 to confirm this.

Weird, i use it exclusively in the terminal (in raw term, tmux and zellij) and i've not noticed any difference in behavior. On both MacOS and Linux.

Wonder what changes that i'm not seeing? Do you think it's a regression or intentional?

Has anyone figured out how to do claude sub agents without using claude? some sort of opensource cli with openrouter or something? I want to use subagents on differnt LLMs ( copilot,selfhost ).

"When you use Claude Code, we collect feedback, which includes usage data (such as code acceptance or rejections), associated conversation data, and user feedback submitted via the /bug command."

So I can opt out of training, but they still save the conversation? Why can't they just not use my data when I pay for things. I am tired of paying, and then them stealing my information. Tell you what, create a free tier that harvests data as the cost of the service. If you pay, no data harvesting.

i really hate the fact that every single model has its own cli tool. the ux for claude code is really great, but being stuck using only anthropic models makes me not want to use it no matter how good it is.

> New native VS Code extension

Looks great, but it's kind of buggy:

- I can't figure out how to toggle thinking

- Have to click in the text box to write, not just anywhere in the Claude panel

- Have to click to reject edits

does it use the smart refractoring hooks of the IDEs or does it do blunt text replacement
