Claude could propose a session goal you approve with one keypress, but it is switched off.

What probably matters to youSection of the release

A ProposeGoal tool and a modelProposedGoals setting are built and hidden behind a gate that is off.

What

A new tool lets Claude propose a completion condition for the session. Approving it sets a session goal, the same as running /goal, after which a separate check runs each turn and Claude keeps working until the condition is met. A new setting modelProposedGoals takes auto, alwaysAsk or disabled, shown as "Claude-proposed goals" in the config panel. Both the setting row and the tool are hidden unless the flag tengu_propose_goal is on, and it is off in this build.

Details
  • the approval dialog reads "Claude proposes a goal" with buttons "Set this goal" and "Not now", and explains that approving is like running /goal
  • inputs are condition and ask_user, which defaults to true; with ask_user: false, intended only when the user's own words stated the outcome, the goal is set directly by running /goal <condition>
  • it cannot clear a goal: "ProposeGoal only proposes a new goal; it cannot clear one. The user can clear an active goal with /goal clear."
  • refused in non-interactive sessions, in plan mode, in sub-agent contexts ("ProposeGoal cannot be used in agent contexts") and when the evaluator is blocked; the condition text is length-capped
  • only one proposal can be outstanding at a time; events are tengu_goal_proposed and tengu_goal_proposal_decided
  • the typed /goal command already worked in the previous release; the tool and the setting are new here
