Organization name in CLI doesn't sync with platform settings

Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened Jan 20, 2026 by Cavedragon13 Closed Feb 28, 2026

Description

The "Welcome back" message in Claude Code CLI displays an auto-generated organization name based on the user's email (e.g., "user@example.com's Organization") rather than pulling from the organization name configured in platform settings.

Current Behavior

Expected Behavior

The organization name displayed in Claude Code CLI should either:

  1. Sync with the organization name set in platform.claude.com settings, OR
  2. Not show an "Organization" label at all for personal accounts, OR
  3. Allow users to configure a display name somewhere that actually works

Why This Matters

Having a settings page that appears to let you customize the organization name, but then not using that value anywhere, creates a confusing user experience. Users expect settings to have an effect.

Environment

  • Claude Code CLI
  • Personal account (Claude Pro/Max subscription)
