Sometimes the extension is installed but the connection to the browser fails. Claude used to tell you to finish connecting with `\/chrome` and its Reconnect extension option. It now tells you to restart Claude Code with `claude --chrome`. Add `--resume` to that command to pick the same conversation back up.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe advice Claude gives you to recover from a failed browser connection is different now.\n\n- Area: Chrome\n- Names: `claude --chrome`, `--resume`\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
