Restoring fullscreen after a terminal-UI switch now checks it is allowed

You'll notice
Useful2 Signal1
Terminal UI

After the terminal interface relaunches, fullscreen is only restored where it is actually supported.

What

After Claude Code relaunches its terminal interface, the handoff telling it which display mode to restore no longer forces fullscreen unconditionally. Fullscreen is now honoured only where alternate-screen rendering is actually eligible.

Details
  • The mode is carried in CLAUDE_CODE_TUI_JUST_SWITCHED.
  • Fullscreen is skipped when running as a local agent, when it has been disabled, or when a crash previously turned it off automatically; the relaunch then forces no particular mode.
  • A value of "default" is passed through unchanged.
Evidence

CLAUDE_CODE_TUI_JUST_SWITCHED

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
