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.

The cross-session inbox can bind after startup if remote config turns it on

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal3
Cross-Session Messaging

Cross-session messaging can now switch on mid-session if config arrives late, instead of staying off.

What

When the cross-session messaging gate is off at startup and configuration has not settled, Claude Code now installs a watcher that binds the socket later if a config refresh enables it, then publishes the socket path to the session record. Previously the inbox was skipped for the life of the process.

Details
  • The late path is distinguished in telemetry by a bind_late marker.
  • The gate name does not appear in readable form in the build, so which remote flag flips it is not visible from here.
Evidence

[uds-messaging] Late bind: gate enabled by a GrowthBook refresh after startup

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