Its the only explanation. I mean, they are not living under a rock...

As evidence that they actually are living under a rock, there's still no proper way to mv a workspace and have it retain all its history and config.

this is seriously nuts. I have so many repos sitting there using old/deprecated/replaced names just because of their idiotic decision to place dir-specific config and memories in ~/.claude

Should we be able to manually rename those history folders to make the session history show up as --resume options in a new folder?

I suppose you can use claude to build a third party script / cli tool that moves, then edit files on ~/.claude

They win either way

I get that it would be nice to have it first party, but they're all just json files that you can just do a bulk awk/sed on. I did this a week ago for about 100 conversations when migrating my convo history to a different username.

I heard some of their employees sent to do some PR in podcasts: they are definitively disconnected from the reality.

Maybe internally they see really unbelievable things, but my impression is that they pushed so hard on agents that they don't have the grasp of the situation.
