Jonas H 37cf183377 Add session history browser, turn-tree branching, model picker, mouse capture, and feed cache
Sessions panel now shows on-disk JSONL history for the current directory
(background scanner, ~1/s, deduped against live sessions). space/→ expands
a session into a lazygit-style turn tree; j/k walks sessions and turns; v
anchors a visual range; b materialises a new fully-decoupled branch file.
ctrl-↓ is the commit point for attach/resume/spawn; live external sessions
get a 3-second liveness guard (past_embeds skips the guard for sessions we
killed ourselves).

n opens a model-picker popup and spawns a fresh --session-id session;
model aliases are auto-discovered by scanning the installed claude binary
(no API call, no exec). ctrl-f toggles fullscreen for the embedded pane.

Mouse is now captured: wheel always scrolls the feed, left-drag selects
screen text copied on release via OSC 52 (like Claude Code). Native
selection needs shift held.

FeedCache stores per-entry rendered lines + wrapped heights, rebuilt only
when the content fingerprint changes — work while holding the app mutex is
proportional to what changed, and feed scroll now works past u16::MAX lines.
Kind::User entries (deep-blue ❯ prefix) surface user prompts from request
bodies via record_user_prompt.

src/markdown.rs added: GFM table rendering (box-drawing, width-fitted
columns) and heading # marker stripping, compensating tui-markdown 0.3.5
gaps without upgrading.

The proxy tap now runs on a dedicated tokio task via a bounded mpsc channel
(try_send; drop-on-full) so it never delays forwarded bytes. Listener is
bound before the TUI starts so multi-instance port coexistence works from
launch; CT_UPSTREAM added for fully offline testing.

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).
