1170With a fork's or subagent's transcript open, follow-up messages and [skills](/docs/en/skills) go to that agent, but built-in commands still run in your main conversation. As of v2.1.199, typing `/model` or `/fast` in that view shows a notice that it changes the main conversation's model or fast mode, not the viewed agent's, instead of running it silently.
1170With a fork's or subagent's transcript open, follow-up messages and [skills](/docs/en/skills) go to that agent, and built-in commands go to your main conversation, with these safeguards:
1171 
1172* `/compact`, `/clear`, and `/rewind` act on the main conversation, so Claude Code asks you to confirm before running one of them from this view.
1173* `/model` and `/fast` set the main conversation's model and fast mode, not the viewed agent's, so they don't run from this view. A notice tells you why.
1174 
1175To have the viewed agent read your message before the work it's waiting on finishes, send it with [`Ctrl+Enter` or `Ctrl+X Ctrl+S`](/docs/en/keybindings#chat-actions). Any shell command or subagent the agent is waiting on that can move to the [background](/docs/en/tools-reference#background-commands) moves there and keeps running. When the agent is writing a response, or waiting on work that can't move to the background, it keeps going and reads your message once that finishes. Requires Claude Code v2.1.286 or later.
