Ultraplan teleport: refined plan does not return to originating CLI session

Description

When using /ultraplan (or the Ultraplan feature) from Claude Code CLI, a web session is launched on claude.ai to refine a plan. After the plan is refined and approved in the web session, the result does not teleport back to the originating CLI session as expected.

Steps to Reproduce

In Claude Code CLI, enter plan mode and create a plan
Run /ultraplan -- this opens a web session at claude.ai/code/session_*
In the web session, refine and approve the plan
Return to the CLI session -- the refined plan is not available

Expected Behavior

The refined plan from the web session should be sent back to the CLI session context, so the user can continue working with the merged/refined plan without manual copy-paste.

Actual Behavior

The CLI session has no access to the Ultraplan output. The user must manually copy-paste the plan back, which defeats the purpose of the seamless handoff.

Environment

Claude Code CLI (macOS, Darwin 25.4.0)
Shell: zsh
The web session URL was accessible and the plan was generated successfully on that end

Additional Context

The CLI displayed "Starting Claude Code on the web..." and provided a session URL. The web session ran fine and produced a plan. The disconnect is in the return path -- nothing comes back to the CLI.

+1 same issue today (after updating claude to 2.1.100)

Still reproduces as of 2026-06-04.

Environment

Claude Code: 2.1.162 (Claude Code)
Origin: Windows Terminal, PowerShell 7.5.5 (CLI-initiated web planning session)
Browser: Microsoft Edge Version 148.0.3967.54 (Official build) (64-bit)

Repro

Start a plan in the CLI and hand off to a web planning session.
Refine and approve the plan in the browser.
Button to teleport the plan to the originating terminal session is missing.

Expected: The button to teleport the plan to the originating CLI conversation is displayed.

Actual: The button to "approve and teleport back to terminal" has been absent from the web UI for more than 1 month, so there is no in-product path to send the plan back at all.

Current workaround: manually copy the plan text out of the web session and paste it into the terminal.

This is still open and now flagged stale — flagging that it's a recurring, reproducible break in the core ultraplan round-trip, not a one-off.

I am a new user and faced this today. It is a terrible experience for a new user, no idea what I was doing wrong and being gas lit by Claude when trying to work out what went wrong.

can confirm I am also experiencing this. I have never been able to teleport back to the terminal session after refining a plan in the cloud using /ultraplan. This is on the latest version as of july 6th 2026.

I have yet to successfully use ultraplan and have it successfully teleport the plan back to the originating CLI, even once. I'm not sure even what the intended workflow would look like.

This is still frustrating.
