What's Wrong?

Agent Teams + remote control (/rc), viewed from the Claude desktop app: each teammate
SendMessage to the lead renders as a gray box containing only the injected security reminder
("Another Claude session sent a message: ... that's permission laundering."). The message
itself is not shown. Multiple messages produce a wall of identical boxes.

The CLI renders the same event as a compact "Message from @<teammate>" line. Delivery works —
the lead responds to the content.

What Should Happen?

A compact notification like the CLI's, not the raw injected reminder without the message.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Linux, inside tmux: lead session with CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1, teammateMode

tmux; enable /rc and attach from the desktop app.

  1. Lead spawns a teammate; teammate sends the lead a message via SendMessage.
  2. View the exchange in the desktop app.
