Claude Code v2.1.228 ·

A toggleable /diff panel sits behind a gate that is off by default

/diff would toggle a sidebar instead of opening a dialog, but the gate is off so you keep the old behaviour.

The toggling /diff handler and its new description are behind tengu_willow_crate, fallback false.

What

/diff has two behaviours in this build. With the tengu_willow_crate gate on, the command is described as "Toggle the diff panel showing uncommitted changes" and actually opens and closes the diff sidebar. With it off, which is the in-source fallback, the old description stays and the handler does nothing. Absent a remote config value saying otherwise, you get the old behaviour.

Details
  • A keybinding route in the off state reports "The diff panel isn't available right now"

tengu_willow_crate Off in both readings

The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.

What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns off for tengu_willow_crate, read as this account. A reading is one sample. Claude Code evaluates its flags remotely, so no client sees the targeting rule behind a value and this says nothing about your account.
