# 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.
```
claude ──ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL──▶ claude-thinking (127.0.0.1:8484) ──▶ api.anthropic.com
TUI: live token feed
```
## Usage
```sh
cargo build --release
./target/release/claude-thinking
```
Then point Claude Code at the proxy, either per-shell:
```sh
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8484
claude
```
or globally in `~/.claude/settings.json`:
```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).
