Session name color customization for multi-window workflows
Context
When running multiple Claude Code sessions in parallel (e.g., a wide-context hub session + focused deep-dive sessions for different subsystems), the session name tag in the status line is the primary way to visually distinguish windows. Currently it's rendered with fixed styling — no way to assign colors.
Request
Allow users to set a color for the session name, either via:
/rename waveloop:wide --color blueor similar flag- A
session.colorfield in settings - ANSI color support in session names
Use Case
I'm working on a macOS audio app with parallel Claude Code sessions:
waveloop:wide— broad context hub for coordination and small fixeswaveloop:routing— deep dive on audio engine render callbackwaveloop:ux— UI/view layer work
All three windows look identical except for the small name tag. Color-coding would make window switching instant instead of squinting at text.
From the user
Elijah says "pretty please" — this would make the multi-session workflow significantly better.
