Claude Code client UI is now customizable, dev builds a personal workbench sidebar
xiaohu · x · 2026-11-14
The Claude Code client interface can now be freely customized. The screenshot shows a rebuilt 'workbench' sidebar styled like a second-screen dashboard: a top card plus categorized to-do cards, each with buttons like 'Done / Hand to Claude / Remind later', and a bottom input box to send tasks straight into a Claude session—triaging daily reports, failed posts, and X draft approvals. The author iterated on card transparency and button styling with Claude itself, a neat example of reshaping your own workbench UI.
