When & Why to Use This Skill

The clear-title skill is a specialized utility designed for the Claude Code CLI environment. It allows users to reset manually assigned task titles by clearing the local cache, effectively forcing the system to revert to dynamic, auto-generated task summaries. This ensures that session headers and system notifications accurately reflect the current state of work without manual intervention.

Use Cases

  • Reverting to Dynamic Summaries: Use this skill when a manually set title becomes outdated or irrelevant, allowing the AI to provide a more accurate, context-aware summary of the current task.
  • Terminal Session Management: Quickly reset session metadata when switching between different coding tasks within the same terminal (TTY) to maintain clean workspace organization.
  • Notification Optimization: Fix stale or misleading notification headers in the Claude Code interface by removing the cached title file, ensuring that system alerts remain relevant to the ongoing development process.
