Problem Statement

When I have multiple Claude Code sessions open for different projects in the same terminal window, it's difficult to tell them apart.<img width="1605" height="137" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/304ef958-114a-4147-b0b5-cf37e9a862e1" />

Proposed Solution

A simple GNOME tweak or shell extension would suffice.

With Claude, I'd like to be able to run two skills:

  1. /terminal-tab-name-customization to customize how I name my tabs
  2. /terminal-tab-name-desktop to customize the formatting of my terminal choice (e.g. GNOME, KDE, xfce)
