Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

For example here:
Image
We see 2 blocks of tool use, but there is nowhere an information about which tool was used.

👉 I'd like to always see the tool name (e.g. todowrite, read), in a corner of the output box (top-right?)

If this is approved, I'd be interested in contributing this feature if it's not too complex 😉

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

  • #3533: [FEATURE]: Show more detailed information for task and custom tools - Requests displaying more information for tool/task calls in TUI
  • #6604: [FEATURE]: MCP Tool Output - Requests showing tool output in the TUI

Feel free to ignore if your request specifically needs the tool name display, which is more granular than these existing issues.
