System prompt · under “Context management”
New rule bars recreating specific existing games, allows original ones
A token budget line under Context management is replaced with a game-building rule. Claude is now told it may build original games, games in a genre, and games from the user's own designs and assets, but not a recreation of a specific existing game, even if renamed or labeled original. The change landed in 18 of 22 captures.

System prompt · under “Context management”
Remaining-token budget line dropped from system prompt
The line stating 15,000,000 tokens left is removed from the system prompt, so Claude no longer sees a total token budget there. This landed in only 2 of 22 captures, so it likely applies to a specific setup.
EndConversation deferred tool added, limited to sustained abuse or demos
A new line under Context management introduces EndConversation as a deferred tool. Claude may use it only for sustained user abuse aimed at the assistant or when the user explicitly asks to see it demonstrated, and it must first load the full guidance with ToolSearch("select:EndConversation"). The line appeared in only 1 of 23 captures, so it may be specific to one setup.

Appended context (skills, environment) · at “<total_tokens>15000000 tokens left</total_tokens>”
Total token budget notice removed from appended context
The appended context no longer includes the line stating 15,000,000 tokens left, so Claude is not told a remaining token budget there. This appeared in only 2 of 22 captures, suggesting it is specific to certain configurations.

EndConversation entry added to appended context in one capture
A single line reading "EndConversation" now appears in the appended skills and environment context. It landed in only 1 of 13 captures, so it is likely tied to one setup, and the diff shows no description of what it does.
