Comment auto-reply stand-down is present but off unless CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_COMMENTS_AUTOREACT is set, or the tengu_sorrel_trellis flag turns on.

What

Before posting an automatic reply to an artifact comment, Claude Code re-reads the thread and, if a reply it does not recognise as its own arrived while it was composing, withholds its own reply and reports that the comment was answered while the reply was being written. Off unless CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_COMMENTS_AUTOREACT is set; otherwise it follows the tengu_sorrel_trellis flag, which is off by default.

Details
  • Produces a distinct outcome, answered_post_time, with its own telemetry values.
  • The notice shown to Claude explains why the reply was held back.

tengu_sorrel_trellis Off by default, switched on for this account

The shipped code defaults this off, and the flag server returned on for the one account this site reads on this version. That is the reading that makes the entry above worth a second look, and it still says nothing about your account.

What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns on for tengu_sorrel_trellis, 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.
