# Claude Code session workflow: cc + /rename + remote control (iOS)

## Context

Cal's established workflow for starting and naming Claude Code sessions, including remote access from iOS via claude.ai/code.

## Workflow Steps

1. Run `cc` (or `cc session-name`) to start a tmux session with `claude` auto-launched
2. Inside Claude, run `/rename session-name` to set a descriptive name visible in the iOS remote sessions list
3. Work normally — Agent Teams and remote control are available

## Remote Session Naming

Session names visible in the iOS remote sessions list are determined in priority order:
1. `/rename` value (highest priority)
2. Last message content (fallback)
3. "Remote Control session" (default fallback)

There is no CLI flag to pre-name a session at launch — `/rename` is the only method.

## Other Useful tmux Commands

- `tmux ls` — list all active sessions
- `Ctrl+B then s` — interactive session switcher inside tmux

## Notes

- Remote control must be enabled globally via `/config` in Claude Code
- The `cc` alias handles tmux nesting so Cal can run it even when his terminal auto-starts tmux
