After usage for a quite a few months (basically since the public release), I've kept seeing these Tinkering / Contemplating / Mastering etc verb choices.
They stopped being funny to me long ago and they're a nuisance that steals precious focus from me.
While using Claude Code, I tend to be very focused (I'm not vibe coding!), so gratuitous distractions only make my work harder. They really do irritate me for at least one second each time, which isn't a good emotional state to be in.
I'd suggest to instead having a simple, fixed verb, or an animation.
Other than that, thanks for the fantastic product.
