Bug Description
Setting CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR does correctly create the configuration files in the new location but it creates identical files/folders for __store.db and statsig in the default location .claude.
Steps to Reproduce

tree ~/.config/claudeall new claude config files correctly foundls -laa newly created .claude directory is created in the root with__store.dbandstatsigwhich is already in the newCLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR.
Expected Behavior
Setting CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR should correctly move all configuration files to this new location and not produce identical files in two locations.
