Bug Description
Claude keeps trying to perform UNIX commands on a Windows 11 PC, I know this a big deal, but it's irritating for us Windows users. Even when I add explicit instructions to CLAUDE.md, the CLI doesn't remember and keeps default to unix commands. It does eventually correct them, but this is time lost
