Status bar shows merged/closed PR instead of hiding it

Description
The Claude Code status bar at the bottom of the terminal displays a PR number associated with the current branch (e.g., PR #35). However, it shows already merged/closed PRs, which is confusing and not useful.
Steps to Reproduce
- Have a branch (e.g.,
develop) that was previously used to create a PR - The PR was merged and closed
- Continue working on the same branch with new commits
- Claude Code status bar still shows the old merged PR number
Expected Behavior
- If there's no open PR for the current branch, don't show any PR indicator in the status bar
- Or at minimum, indicate the PR status (e.g.,
PR #35 (merged)) so it's clear it's not an active PR
Actual Behavior
The status bar shows PR #35 with no indication that it's already merged, making it look like there's an active PR when there isn't one.
Environment
- macOS (Darwin 24.6.0)
- Claude Code CLI
