I had Codex read #182 and draft a PR to fix it. This is its suggested
approach. I've tested it and it works. It removes the purple `thinking
for 386s` type lines entirely, and replaces them with a single yellow
`thinking for #s` line:
```
thinking for 31s
╭────────────────────────────────────────╮
│( ● ) Thinking..
╰────────────────────────────────────────╯
```
prompt. I've been using it that way via `npm run dev`, and prefer it.
## What
Empty "reasoning" updates were showing up as blank lines in the terminal
chat history. We now short-circuit and return `null` whenever
`message.summary` is empty, so those no-ops are suppressed.
## How
- In `TerminalChatResponseReasoning`, return early if `message.summary`
is falsy or empty.
- In `TerminalMessageHistory`, drop any reasoning items whose
`summary.length === 0`.
- Swapped out the loose `any` cast for a safer `unknown`-based cast.
- Rolled back the temporary Vitest script hacks that were causing stack
overflows.
## Why
Cluttering the chat with empty lines was confusing; this change ensures
only real reasoning text is rendered.
