BTW Side Questions [In Development]#

Quick side questions that fork a conversation without using the main context.

Stubbed - regex exists but parser always returns { isBtw: !1 }

  • Would create a forked conversation for the side question
  • Side questions cannot use tools
  • UI component exists with "btw" label and "Answering..." spinner
  • Full infrastructure exists but vK1() returns false

Orphaned Tip: ⚠️ Users may see: "Start with 'btw' to ask a quick side question without interrupting Claude's current work" - but the feature doesn't work yet.

Evidence

  • Added loading indicator when resuming conversations for better feedback
  • Fixed /context command not respecting custom system prompts in non-interactive mode
  • Fixed order of consecutive Ctrl+K lines when pasting with Ctrl+Y
  • Improved @ mention file suggestion speed (~3× faster in git repositories)
  • Improved file suggestion performance in repos with .ignore or .rgignore files
  • Improved settings validation errors to be more prominent

System prompt

The system prompt was not captured for this release, so this page cannot say whether it moved.
