Alt-modified keys never reach the app on keyboard layouts where Alt composes characters (e.g. dk_mac_fixed: alt-c = ©, alt-q = @), so the modifier-split model was unusable. New scheme, layout-proof: - F2 show/hide the claude pane - ctrl-down focus the claude pane (spawns/shows it if hidden) - ctrl-up focus the feed - claude focused: every other key goes to claude (bold cyan border) - feed focused: original plain keybindings unchanged - CT_DEBUG_KEYS=1 surfaces raw key events in the status bar Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.

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).
