[BUG] Claude Code spawns a lot of splited windows

[vtvz]

Bug Description

From time to time (a lot) plugin creates two vertical splits showing diff, but after accepting the one split stays. It can spawn multiple of them and I need to close them one by one using :q. It's very annoying

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start using plugin in documented way with provided config without any changes

Expected Behavior

Plugin should use opened window or at least close opened

Environment

• Neovim version: v0.11.4
• Claude Code CLI version: 2.0.36
• OS: ManjaroLinux 25.0.10
• Plugin version: this

Error Messages

AFAICT there are 2 cases where this is common:

• if you focus on claude and choose option 3 "no, and tell claude what to do"
• if it wants to edit a file that you do not currently have in an open buffer, it appears to open the file in a new split pane, then split again to show the diff such that when you accept, it goes back to the additional split

I'm happy with claude's diff presentation and don't want claudecode.nvim to create the diff view in neovom. How can this be done?

[simozampa]

use open_in_currrent_tab = flase to avoid claude from opening new windows

opts = {
      diff_opts = {
        auto_close_on_accept = true, -- Close diff windows after accepting
        vertical_split = true, -- Use vertical splits for diffs
        open_in_current_tab = false, -- Don't create new tabs
        keep_terminal_focus = true, -- Keep focus on Claude terminal
      },
    },

open_in_currrent_tab = false, unfortunately doesnt prevent this in my case somehow :(
