When a Claude Code session is resumed from a different directory, Claude creates a new file that inherits the parent session's sessionId in its message content but is stored in the original project's folder. The old code: - Extracted sessionId from message content (could be parent's ID) - Used the cwd field from messages (could be a different directory) This caused `claude --resume <id>` to fail because Claude Code looks for sessions in project-specific folders based on the current working directory. The fix: - Use filename as session ID (what Claude Code expects for --resume) - Add resume_cwd() that decodes the project folder from file_path (e.g., "-Users-bob--config-nvim" -> "/Users/bob/.config/nvim") - cd to the decoded project folder before running claude --resume
