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.

More state gains v5-backed code paths

Under the hood
Useful1 Signal2
Internals

Themes, settings, tasks and transcripts gained alternative storage paths that stay dormant without a backend.

v5 storage paths sit beside the normal file paths for several stores, inert unless a backend handle is supplied.

What

Several stores now have a v5 backend path sitting alongside the existing file path, taken only when a backend is supplied.

Details
  • Covers theme listing and saving, MCP task metadata (write, delete and list under an mcp-tasks sidecar), scheduled-task status, user settings writes, and ranged transcript reads.
  • Settings write failures now raise a distinct error naming the failure class.
  • Each path is inert unless a v5 backend is passed in; what supplies it could not be determined.

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