If you resume a session that another Claude Code process is still running, Claude Code shows a screen saying the session is in use. That screen used to receive only the session, the process holding it, and whether you could fork it (start a copy). It now also receives a handoff that includes the prompt you gave, so the prompt is not lost.\n\nIn interactive use, `--resume` can now also be given a title.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes what happens when you try to resume a session that is already running somewhere else.\n\n- Area: Sessions\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
