What
When a reply is attempted on an artifact comment thread that someone already answered, Claude Code no longer posts, and reports "reply not posted (thread already answered)".
Details
The reply result can carry an already_answered flag, producing a new outcome answered_post_time alongside the existing answered_elsewhere and summon_foreign.
The suppression is recorded on the artifact_comments_autoreact metric as edit_reply_stood_down_post_time and answered_post_time_notice_suppressed.
Evidence
reply not posted (thread already answered)
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
