The Claude Code startup banner displays "Claude Pro" for users on the Max plan. It should reflect the actual subscription tier (e.g., "Claude Max").

Root Cause

The Claude Code startup banner displays "Claude Pro" for users on the Max plan. It should reflect the actual subscription tier (e.g., "Claude Max").

Code Example

Claude Code v2.1.101
Opus 4.6 with high effort · Claude Pro

Claude Code v2.1.101

Description

The Claude Code startup banner displays "Claude Pro" for users on the Max plan. It should reflect the actual subscription tier (e.g., "Claude Max").

Screenshot

Banner shows:

Claude Code v2.1.101
Opus 4.6 with high effort · Claude Pro

Expected:

Claude Code v2.1.101
Opus 4.6 with high effort · Claude Max

Details

  • Claude Code version: v2.1.101
  • Actual plan: Max
  • Displayed plan: Pro
  • The CLI appears to label all claude.ai consumer subscriptions as "Claude Pro" without distinguishing between Pro and Max tiers.

This is cosmetic only — functionality and model access work correctly for Max.

extent analysis

TL;DR

Update the subscription tier labeling in the Claude Code startup banner to correctly reflect the actual subscription plan, such as "Claude Max" for users on the Max plan.

Guidance

  • Verify the current implementation of the startup banner to identify where the "Claude Pro" label is being set.
  • Check the code for any conditional logic that determines the subscription tier label and update it to correctly distinguish between Pro and Max tiers.
  • Consider adding a mapping or configuration option to associate the actual subscription plan with the corresponding label.
  • Test the updated banner with different subscription plans to ensure the correct label is displayed.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not include specific code details.

Notes

This fix is cosmetic and does not affect the functionality or model access for users on the Max plan. The update should only change the labeling in the startup banner.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by updating the labeling logic to correctly reflect the actual subscription tier, as the issue is specific to the display of the subscription plan and does not indicate a need for a version upgrade.
