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.

Backgrounded Session Messages Improved

When a conversation is backgrounded, the terminal now shows more actionable messages:

  • Backgrounded by the system: "Your conversation moved to the background — enter opens it · esc returns to it · ctrl+c twice quits"
  • Backgrounded and detached from terminal: "Your conversation was backgrounded — resume it with: claude --resume <sessionId>"

These replace the less informative prior messages.

Evidence

New message strings (search for "Your conversation moved to the background")

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