DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Reference / Feature flags

tengu_kairos_loop_keepalive

A Claude Code feature flag, read out of the shipped bundle. It has been in the build since v2.1.157, including the newest one read.

What it is

The kite network transport is on by default everywhere, and CLAUDE_CODE_HARBOR_KITE=0 now really turns it off.

Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.248.

Presence across releases

ReleasesReadingDeclared typeDefault
2.1.245 – 2.1.250 5 releases never mined — —
2.1.157 – 2.1.243 78 releases in the build — bool:false

A row reading never mined is a release with no archived bundle behind it. Nothing was read out of it, so nothing here says whether the name was in it. A declared type or a default is only ever what that release's own bundle stated.

Two arms, because they disagree: this account is the one account this site reads and anonymous is a baseline with no identity attached. A reading says nothing about your account, and off cannot rule out a rollout both readings sit outside of. What these readings can and cannot show.

Documentation pages

None of Anthropic's documentation pages this site has a copy of carries this name.

Names beside it

Every feature flag in the inventory starting tengu_kairos_loop, up to twelve of them.

tengu_kairos_loop_dynamicCheckpoints now record self-scheduling wake counts and open artifact watches, though the loop itself is off. 2.1.138 tengu_kairos_loop_persistentThe /loop tick prompt is no longer behind a remote flag and works for everyone. 2.1.138 tengu_kairos_loop_promptThe Kairos loop prompt is hardcoded off and its remote switch is gone from the build. 2.1.138

Read out of the published npm bundle release by release, and out of Anthropic's own documentation as this site captured it. Nothing on this page is a description anybody here wrote about what the feature flag does. All feature flags.
