The in-flight "Pondering…" turn indicator used muted grey; switch it to
the existing claudeAccent (#d97757, Anthropic's brand coral) — the
indicator is main-thread Claude running, which the accent is reserved for.

Each RunningIndicator shuffles a copy of the verb list on creation, so a turn
doesn't always start with the same word. A `shuffle` flag (default true) is
turned off in tests for deterministic assertions.

Mincing, Boiling, Humming, Buzzing, Magicking, Cliding, Zooming, Bouncing —
appended to the rotation (20 verbs, ~80s cycle). Pondering stays first, so
the reduced-motion default is unchanged.

The static gray `running…` gave no sense anything was happening. Replace it
with a RunningIndicator: an animated ellipsis (Pondering → . → .. → ...) and a
curated, on-brand verb that rotates every few seconds (Pondering, Conjuring,
Brewing, …).
The verbs are clide-owned, not the Claude Code CLI's — that list is a TUI
cosmetic the stream-json protocol doesn't surface, and reusing the bundled
strings is a licensing gray area, so a curated list keeps us self-contained
(own-the-rendering-stack, D-75). Animation is driven off a single
AnimationController's value (no timers) so tests advance it with bounded
pumps; reduced-motion shows a static verb and the a11y label stays stable.
