What

When a shell command you sent to the background finishes, a bracketed line is appended to its captured output saying either that it was killed or what exit code it returned, so the transcript records the outcome rather than just stopping.

Details
  • The marker is written before the existing success/failure telemetry for the background shell.
Evidence

exited with code

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