Prompt Cache Break Debugging

Entry
JSON All of v2.1.23
EntryKind: in v2.1.23,
ChangesSection of the release
What

New detailed logging when prompt caching breaks, helping identify why cache misses occur.

Details
  • Logs when cache breaks due to: model changes, system prompt changes (with character delta), tool schema changes
  • Format: [PROMPT CACHE BREAK] system prompt changed (+123 chars) [source=X, call #Y, cache read: A → B, creation: C]
  • Useful for debugging unexpected cache misses in long sessions
Evidence

Logging at line 266957 (contains "[PROMPT CACHE BREAK]", "system prompt changed", "tools changed", "model changed")

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