You know the spinner verbs Claude Code shows while it’s thinking? (“Analyzing…”, “Thinking…”) — turns out you can customize them via ~/.claude/settings.json using the spinnerVerbs config. So I made an awesome-list style repo with 35 themed packs you can drop right in: Some highlights: Developer — “Deploying to prod on Friday”, “Rewriting in Rust”, “Blaming DNS” Darth Vader — “Finding your lack of tests disturbing”, “Force-pushing to the remote” Yoda — “Reading the code, I am”, “Trying not, doing” Vibecoder — “Letting the AI cook”, “Shipping on good vibes”, “Approving all the diffs” Michael Scott — “Declaring bankruptcy on the old code”, “Somehow managing” The Dude — “Abiding”, “Sipping a White Russian” Cat — “Knocking things off the table”, “Ignoring your request” Chaos — “Sacrificing a semicolon”, “Letting the intrusive thoughts win” Plus: Corporate, Pirate, Wizard, Vim, Zombie, Shakespeare, Therapist, and more. How to use: Just copy the spinnerVerbs block from any pack into your ~/.claude/settings.json . Use “mode”: “replace” to swap out the defaults or “mode”: “append” to add to them. You can mix and match verbs from different packs too. GitHub: https://github.com/AlexPl292/awesome-claude-spinners PRs welcome if you have your own theme ideas! submitted by /u/feedforwardhost
