Feature Request
Background
Claude Code recently added support for configuring model effort level (thinking budget), which controls how much computational effort the model uses when generating responses. This is configured via settings.json:
{
"model": "claude-opus-4-5",
"thinkingBudget": "auto"
}Possible values include "auto", "low", "medium", "high", or a specific token count.
Request
It would be great if CCometixLine could:
- Display current effort level in the statusline as an optional segment (e.g.,
🧠 auto or ⚡ high)
- Allow configuring effort level through the TUI config interface (
ccline --config), so users can switch between effort levels without manually editing settings.json
Why This Is Useful
- The effort level significantly affects response quality and cost/speed tradeoffs
- Being able to see the current effort level at a glance in the statusline helps users stay aware of their current configuration
- Toggling effort level from the TUI is more convenient than editing
settings.json directly
