Jonas H 255c67de3f Fix session key extraction for Claude Code 2.1.x user_id format
metadata.user_id is now a JSON-ish blob containing "session_id":"<uuid>"
(verified against the 2.1.173 binary: user_id is built from an object
with device_id/account_uuid/session_id). split("session_") was matching
inside "session_id":" and producing mangled keys like `id":"a78…`,
which broke the embed-session match — so the pane never grew for
interactive prompts. New session_key() handles both the JSON blob and
the legacy user_…_session_<uuid> format, with tests.

claude-thinking

A TUI that displays Claude Code's streams token-by-token — thinking, text, and tool calls — by sitting as a pass-through proxy between Claude Code and the Anthropic API.

No extra usage: it never issues requests of its own; it observes the SSE stream of requests Claude Code was already making, forwarding bytes verbatim and unbuffered.

                               TUI: live token feed

Usage

cargo build --release
./target/release/claude-thinking

Then point Claude Code at the proxy, either per-shell:

export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8484
claude

or globally in ~/.claude/settings.json:

{ "env": { "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:8484" } }

Note: with the global setting, Claude Code can't reach the API while the proxy isn't running.

Keys

key action
q / Esc quit
Tab / Shift-Tab switch session
j/k, arrows, PgUp/PgDn scroll (disables follow)
f / G / End follow live tail
g / Home jump to top

Display

  • ✻ thinking — dim italic, streamed token-by-token
  • text — rendered as markdown (tui-markdown)
  • ⚙ tool calls — input JSON pretty-printed on completion, raw fragments while streaming
  • meta — message boundaries with model, context size, stop reason, token counts
  • errors — API/stream errors in red

Sessions are keyed by the Claude Code session ID found in request metadata; concurrent requests (subagents) tap independently.

--headless runs the proxy without the TUI. CT_PORT overrides the port (default 8484).
