What's Wrong?
Bug Description
When using the /clear command, the new session created gets titled "/clear" instead of
a meaningful title. This makes it impossible to find the session later using /resume,
which lists sessions by title.
## Actual Behavior
The session is titled "/clear" in the /resume session list, making it impossible to
identify or distinguish from other sessions that were also cleared.
## Workaround
Avoid /clear — instead close the terminal and start a new claude session manually.
## Environment
- OS: Linux (Ubuntu)
- Claude Code version: (provjeri sa
claude --version)
What Should Happen?
Expected Behavior
After /clear, the session should either:
- Retain the previous session title, or
- Generate a new meaningful title based on the first user message after clearing, or
- At minimum, not use the command name "/clear" as the title
