I am running nightly and a change introduced on either Feb 5th or 6th makes it so that the command being run in collapsed/default terminal element in the agent chat are now truncated instead of showing the full command like it did previously. Now whenever i want to see what the agent is doing at a glance, i have to go and expand the inline terminal element to see the full command being run which is annoying and also tricky when the agent is working live since new elements get added and things move around as the agent continues to work.
This is especially a problem since agents prefer to (and for good reasons) run a “cd …. &&” before the actual command being run so for long paths, i can’t even see the command being run at all.
Here’s an example:
And here’s a more extreme example, where the agent was actually running unit tests but u can’t even tell since everything before hand is git checks:
and here is what the above command looked like uncollapsed. You can see that there is very little gain in terms of space saving / compactness of the chat pane since the command only takes one more line to display.
The “Ran command:” header line does at least provide some insight but still i definitely prefer the old way the collapsed terminal displayed the full command.
Just thought I’d share this feedback since I am on nightly and think this would be a regression in UX if included in the next stable release.
