Description

Provide a concise mode for session output: collapse the agent's lengthy tool calls and document edits that contain no actual conversation content. As it stands, in some cases the session output offers too little useful information and is very hard to read.

Research direction

Start in the /chat session output on macOS and reproduce a session with lengthy tool calls and document edits that contain no conversation content. Identify the output entry point and determine how concise mode should collapse those sections; done means the session is easier to scan while conversation content remains visible.
