What's Wrong?

When running Claude Code via /remote and monitoring the session through the web or desktop client, the CLI sometimes stops and waits at an interactive prompt (e.g. "Do you want to proceed? 1. Yes / 2. No").

The remote viewer has no way of knowing this has happened — the session just appears frozen/idle with no indication that input is required.

What Should Happen?

Expected behavior:
The remote viewer should see that the CLI is waiting for input, ideally with the ability to respond, or at minimum a visible status indicator.

Actual behavior:
The session appears completely idle. There is no way to tell it is blocked on a prompt.

Workaround:
Using --dangerously-skip-permissions avoids the issue by bypassing all prompts, but this is not always desirable.

Environment: Claude Code CLI with /remote sharing, monitored via web and desktop client.
