My (and many others) normal workflow includes a planning phase, followed by an implementation phase. For me the most useful time for fast mode would be during that planning phase.
The current "clear context and execute plan" would be great to be joined by a, "clear context, switch to regular speed mode, and execute plan".
I even think I would not require fast mode for the explore agents etc - they have so much to do that I accept that takes a while. being able to rapidly iterate on the plan before setting it going would make it easier.
Only in the same way that the pixels displayed in a browser are not a tree structure that you can diff - the diffing happens at a higher level of abstraction than what's rendered.
Diffing and only updating the parts of the TUI which have changed does make sense if you consider the alternative is to rewrite the entire screen every "frame". There are other ways to abstract this, e.g. a library like tqmd for python may well have a significantly more simple abstraction than a tree for storing what it's going to update next for the progress bar widget than claude, but it also provides a much more simple interface.
To me it seems more fair game to attack it for being written in JS than for using a particular "rendering" technique to minimise updates sent to the terminal.
I have formal requirements for all implemented code. This is all on relatively greenfield solo developed codebases with tools I know inside out (Django, click based cli etc) so yes. Thanks so much for your concern, internet person!
I spent a whole day running 3x local CC sessions and about 7 Claude code web sessions over the day. This was the most heavy usage day ever for me, about 30 pull requests created and merged over 3 projects.
I got a lot done, but my brain was fried after that. Like wired but totally exhausted.
Has anyone else experienced this and did you find strategies to help (or find that it gets easier)?

Our wearable technology gathers real-time data on how people move around hospitals. When people can get in, out and around hospitals easily, there's less waiting and more time for what matters – getting patients back to health.
Our results are compelling. So far, we've helped 125 hospitals and clinics across Europe, the Middle East and Asia boost their capacity by up to 40%. They've also: Reduced patient waiting times by up to 65%, Increased patient appointments by up to 50%, and Increased contact between staff and patients by up to 300%.
