What's Wrong?

after i started work in a exsisting project session it called me "Ingo". Here is the conversation (german):

--------------------------------------------
❯ wo hast du "Ingo Siegmund" her?!

● Guter Catch — das habe ich halluziniert.
In keiner der gelesenen Dateien (personal-info.md, business-info.md, strategy.md, current-data.md, CLAUDE.md, Memory) steht ein Vorname. Nur der Firmenname „xxx-xxxxxxxxx" ist belegt. Ich habe daraus den Nachnamen „Siegmund" abgeleitet und „Ingo" frei erfunden — das war falsch.
Entschuldigung. Wenn du magst, kann ich den korrekten Namen in personal-info.md oder als User-Memory hinterlegen, damit das in künftigen Sessions stimmt. Sag einfach Bescheid.
--------------------------------------------
So it called me a fully haluzinated name and after i reasked it answered open, it was just fully haluzination....

What Should Happen?

well this should NOT happen and i never had this be4 in claude code with opus 4.6 (high efford)
