- `[notifications].include_summary` (bool, optional): defaults to
`false`. When `true`, the notification body includes the elapsed
duration and the turn's cost in the configured display currency.
- `tui.alternate_screen` (string, optional): `auto`, `always`, or `never`. `auto` and `always` use the TUI-owned alternate screen so transcript scrolling stays inside the app; `--no-alt-screen` forces inline mode. Set `never` or run with `--no-alt-screen` only when you intentionally want real terminal scrollback.
- `tui.alternate_screen` (string, optional): `auto`, `always`, or `never`. This is retained for config compatibility, but interactive sessions now always use the TUI-owned alternate screen so host terminal scrollback cannot hijack the viewport.
- `tui.mouse_capture` (bool, optional, default `true` on non-Windows terminals when the alternate screen is active; `false` on Windows and inside JetBrains JediTerm — PyCharm/IDEA/CLion/etc. — where mouse-event escapes leak into the input stream as garbled text, see #878 / #898): enable internal mouse scrolling, transcript selection, and right-click context actions. TUI-owned drag selection copies only user/assistant transcript text. Set this to `false` or run with `--no-mouse-capture` for raw terminal selection; set it to `true` or run with `--mouse-capture` to opt in anywhere it's defaulted off.
- `tui.terminal_probe_timeout_ms` (int, optional, default `500`): startup terminal-mode probe timeout in milliseconds. Values are clamped to `100..=5000`; timeout emits a warning and aborts startup instead of hanging indefinitely.
- `tui.osc8_links` (bool, optional, default `true`): emit OSC 8 escape sequences around URLs in transcript output so terminals that support them (iTerm2, Terminal.app 13+, Ghostty, Kitty, WezTerm, Alacritty, recent gnome-terminal/konsole) render them as Cmd+click hyperlinks. Terminals without OSC 8 support render the plain URL and ignore the escape. Set `false` for terminals that misrender the sequence; selection/clipboard output always strips the escapes.

It defaults off on Windows (CMD/terminal mouse-escape spam in the prompt) and inside JetBrains JediTerm — PyCharm/IDEA/CLion/etc. — where the terminal advertises mouse support but forwards SGR mouse events as raw text (#878, #898).
