Source Intelligence

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.

--pool Backend Error Message

The specific error message directing users from --bg to --pool has been removed along with its logic. The --pool error path is no longer generated.

Evidence

Removed string (search for "--bg and --pool are different backends" — absent from v2.1.174)

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
