# Story 86: Show live activity status instead of static thinking indicator in chat
## User Story
As a user chatting with Claude in the web UI, I want to see what the agent is actually doing (reading files, running commands, etc.) instead of a static "thinking" message, so the application feels responsive and I can follow along.
## Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] When the agent is executing a tool call, the thinking indicator updates to show the tool name and a short summary (e.g. "Reading file: src/main.rs", "Running command: cargo test")
- [ ] The status updates in place without adding new chat bubbles
- [ ] When the agent is between tool calls (actually thinking), it shows "Thinking..."
- [ ] The status text is derived from the streaming events already coming over the WebSocket
- [ ] No new server-side changes needed if the stream already contains tool use events; otherwise add a lightweight status event type
## Out of Scope
- TBD
