The spinner, the animated status line shown while Claude works, used to show a percentage for how far compaction had got. That percentage has been removed.\n\nThe spinner can also show that Claude seems stalled, and a rule decides when to hold that back. That rule now depends on a different condition, and it applies only while Claude is not responding.\n\n**Why**\n\nYou no longer see a progress figure while compaction runs.\n\n- Area: Compaction\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5"}
