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.

CLI Init Only Flag Description Update

The --init-only flag description now accurately reflects that it runs both Setup and SessionStart:startup hooks, not just Setup.

Old: "Run Setup hooks with init trigger, then exit" New: "Run Setup and SessionStart:startup hooks, then exit"

Evidence

Line 585008 (CLI option description, contains "Run Setup and SessionStart:startup hooks, then exit")

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