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.

Loop file can come from stored state instead of disk

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal3
Internals not in their notes

Your loop.md can come from stored state when a storage handle is available, otherwise from disk.

loop.md
What

The lookup for loop.md gained an async variant that, after checking .claude/loop.md in the config directory, falls back to a stored loop-file value, trimmed and ignored if empty. The stored path only runs when a storage handle is passed in; otherwise the plain file lookup is used.

Evidence

loop.md

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