If the new login is valid, the session (your current conversation with Claude Code) switches to it.\n\n**Why**\n\nFixing your login in one window now also fixes a session that was stuck on the login notice in another window, without restarting it.\n\n- Area: Auth\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
