[BUG] Session switching with /resume shows wrong conversation in CC #8176
Description
Preflight Checklist
- I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
- This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
- I am using the latest version of Claude Code
What's Wrong?
When resuming a session with /resume, the conversation shown to the user does not match the session actually loaded into the model’s context. This creates confusion because the assistant responds based on one session while the UI shows another.
What Should Happen?
The displayed conversation and the model’s context should always match the same selected session.

Steps to Reproduce
Steps to Reproduce
mkdir new_folder
cd new_folder
claude
1. Session ID 1
• User: say 1
• Assistant: 1
• User: say 2
• Assistant: 2
• User: /clear
2. Session ID 2
• User: say 3
• Assistant: 3
• User: say 4
• Assistant: 4
• User: /resume
3. Select the first session.
Expected Behavior
• The user should see the conversation from Session ID 1 (say 1, say 2).
• The assistant should use Session ID 1 as context.
Actual Behavior
• The user sees the conversation from Session ID 2 (say 3, say 4).
• But the model is actually loaded with Session ID 1 as context.
• Example:
• User: Repeat the last number
• Assistant: 2 (from Session ID 1, not Session ID 2).

That happened to me a couple of times now. I was sure it had switched but convinced myself that i just got mixed up, but didn't believe it. Nice to see it's a thing!

The issue has been reproduced with the version 1.0.48
The workaround is to use "claude -r" rather than "/resume" to switch between sessions.
