Needs-Tag-Fix Doesn't match tag requirements Needs-Triage It's a new issue that the core contributor team needs to triage at the next triage meeting Resolution-External For issues that are outside this codebase

This is actually caused by npm according to #2645 (comment) .

You're free to set the title to whatever you want using OSC 2. For example in WSL:

printf "\e]2;test\e\\"

Then the tab title will change accordingly:

If you want the tab title to magically become whatever the current running program is (in this case, webpack), that's not really possible right now.

Yep, the title is something that's set by the client application (in this case, npm). You should probably file a feature request on npm(?) or whoever is running that tool to change the title of the terminal to the running tool, not just "npm".
