Unclear Which setups make Claude Code use the terminal bell.

What

Claude Code picks how to notify you depending on your terminal, with its own method for iTerm, kitty and others. It now checks one condition first, and when that condition holds it uses the terminal bell and skips the per-terminal choice.

Why

In some setups, notifications may arrive as a bell instead of the method you saw before.
