[BUG] "claude auth status" says logged in but "claude" wants to login again

What's Wrong?

The command "claude" acts as though I'm not logged in but "claude auth status" says I am and "claude --print hello" returns a working response. This is an IPv6 only environment which caused issues with installation as well so that may be part of the problem.

What Should Happen?

The TUI should start and not run the login/authentication flow.
