Original Pull Request: https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/pull/13617

State: open
Merged: No

Problem

Current TUI has several UX issues:

  1. Not too much vertical space for scroll - status indicators and hints take extra lines
  2. Distracting status indicator - the loading indicator is overly prominent and draws attention away from content
  3. Status indicator position - status indicator is far from where the actual loading/thinking happens

Changes

  1. Move status indicator closer to dialog content - at the end of the last assistant message
  2. Add a less intrusive status indicator style (pulsating circle)"
  3. Inline status indicator with the status line - combine indicator with last request meta data element
  • When thinking is in progress: ● (or 'scanner' spinner) replaces the square ▣ and user sees
    ● Mode · model · esc to interrupt
  • When complete (no changes):
    ▣ Mode · model · duration
  1. Move agent/variants/commands hints to the same line as current mode and model
  2. Add switching of status indicator style into menu

Result

  • More organic and intuitive interface
  • Less distracting and annoying
  • Better use of vertical space (saves 1 line + offset, ~30-40 pixels of vertical space)
