What
The lookup table Claude Code uses to pick an icon for task or tool status now has a running entry, with its own icon and no set color, alongside the existing info, pending, and loading entries.
Why
This lets Claude Code visually distinguish a running task or tool from the other existing states rather than reusing one of their icons.
