They now require both that tasks are not disabled by `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TASKS=false` and that todo tools are on, which happens for certain session kinds, when `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TODO_TOOLS` is true, or when the `tengu_rosy_wren` flag is on. That flag is off by default in this build.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TODO_TOOLS`\n\n- Area: Background Tasks\n- Names: `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TASKS`, `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TODO_TOOLS`\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5"}
