> @-mention files instead of naming them

Love Claude, but the @ mention is broken in the desktop app. For the same project if I type the same query "@ephem" I get:

CLI: https://imgur.com/a/VZMUCOa (good, relevant results)

Desktop: https://imgur.com/a/QLSo4Ms (bad, irrelevant)

Opened issue for this and it was automatically closed:

https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/71421

I could have written the issue better (using CLI as comparison instead of VS Code). But, no doubt in my mind Claude could fix this itself in a minute.

Clarification: It wasn’t closed on submission though. It sat open ~17 days, a bot marked it stale, and it closed when nobody responded to the stale label.

The two-phase thing is the part I didn’t know until recently: the stale label is basically asking “is this still relevant?”, and answering it makes the bot back off next time around. nixpkgs does the same. Bumping feels wrong on most trackers, agreed, but at this issue volume I don’t know what else works.

Anyway a comment should reopen it. Your CLI vs desktop screenshots are a better repro than most things in that tracker.
