312The automatic name is a short label written by a [Haiku-class model](/docs/en/model-config). A name the session gets later also appears on its row, including the name Claude derives when you [accept a plan](/docs/en/permission-modes#review-and-approve-a-plan) in that session.

634| Field | Present | Description |
635| :------------------------- | :------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
636| `cwd`, `kind`, `startedAt` | Always | The working directory, `interactive` or `background`, and the start time in Unix milliseconds |
637| `id` | Background sessions | Short ID, usable with `claude attach`, `claude logs`, and `claude stop` |
638| `state` | Background sessions | One of `working`, `blocked`, `done`, `failed`, or `stopped` |
639| `pid`, `status` | While the process is alive | Process ID and current status |
640| `waitingFor` | When `status` is `waiting` | What the session is blocked on: `permission prompt` for an approval, `input needed` for a question from Claude or an MCP server's input request, `sandbox request`, `worker request`, or `dialog open` |
641| `sessionId`, `name` | When set | `sessionId` is the full session UUID, usable with [`claude --resume`](/docs/en/sessions). An interactive session you never named carries a default `name` built from its working directory's name plus a two-character suffix, such as `my-app-3f` |
