Status line shows 'Claude Pro' for Max subscribers

Bug
Claude Code status line displays "Claude Pro" even when the account is on the Max plan.
Evidence
claude auth statusreturns"subscriptionType": "pro"for a Max subscriber- Billing page at claude.ai/settings confirms Max plan ("5x more usage than Pro")
- Claude Code settings page confirms full Max-tier token permissions (
user:mcp_servers,user:sessions:claude_code, etc.)
Expected
Status line should display "Claude Max" for Max subscribers.
Actual
▐▛███▜▌ Claude Code v2.1.79
▝▜█████▛▘ Opus 4.6 with high effort · Claude Pro
▘▘ ▝▝
Root cause
The API endpoint that returns subscription info appears to report "pro" for both Pro and Max tiers, and Claude Code displays this value without distinguishing between them.
Environment
- Claude Code v2.1.79
- Windows 10
- Max plan (SGD 120.22/month)
