do we have the ability to inject more relevant words here based on context?

thing's been running 15+ minutes and i have no idea what it's actually doing. would be cool if it said typing, writing code, refactoring, etc etc if we know. or at least show some of what's happening behind the scenes.

just seeing this makes it feel super slow even if it's the same speed as Claude Code or Cursor. (Cursor feels fast because you see so much of what's happening behind the scenes)

also just noticed in the gif how the time jumped from 16:20 to 17:41 over the course of a few seconds?

+1 to this, I like with Claude etc how you can usually click some kind of dropdown to see what it's doing in the background. There have been a few times I've not been sure if Code is stuck or working away
