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.

  • Daemon startup failures now fall back to transient spawn with a repair command instead of leaving the user at a dead daemon state. Evidence: search for "daemon service did not become reachable within 5s" and "falling back to transient spawn. Run 'claude daemon install' to repair."
  • Renaming a non-responsive remote/background session now shows a specific error instead of silently reverting or using only the generic local state-file failure. Evidence: search for "Couldn't rename — that session isn't responding"
  • Background startup can now mark a session as blocked when it appears stuck on a startup dialog, with the user-facing action open this session to continue setup. Evidence: search for "stuck on a startup dialog" and "CLAUDE_BG_STARTUP_WEDGE_MS"
  • Background worktree cleanup now distinguishes a worktree kept because it is on a different branch from one kept because it has uncommitted changes. Evidence: search for "Worktree is on a different branch — kept at"
