Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
  • This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

In the current setup, when Claude Code is thinking, you cannot scroll up and read previous messages. I think it would be valuable to add this feature so that users can read the conversation history while Claude is thinking.

Proposed Solution

While thinking, user can scroll up.
