Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
- [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
- [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code
What's Wrong?
Running claude starts a process named 2.1.37. This is surprising. I expect to see a process named claude in Activity Monitor and when scanning tmux window titles.
What Should Happen?
The process should be named claude (or similar).
