Naming agent sessions: why the agent should name itself

A tab called websta.ai tells you which repo. It does not tell you that this session is halfway through migrating the bookings table, and the other websta.ai tab is writing release notes.

Titles from the work itself

adhdTerminal asks Claude for a two-to-four-word name whenever a tile's output changes, at most every thirty seconds. It gets the last prompt and about 1800 characters of recent output, nothing else. The result reads like Fix webhook retries or Draft pricing copy.

Because the name follows the work, a session that drifts to a new task gets a new name. You see the drift on the wall instead of discovering it later.

When to name by hand

Double-click a title to set your own. A manual title is never overwritten. Use it for sessions where the job is fixed and you want the label to stay put, such as a long-running deploy watcher.

Privacy

The naming request goes through Claude Code under your own account, like everything else in the tile. Turn the toggle off and nothing is sent.
