Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Plan Mode

Plans longer than 200,000 characters can't be approved; you're asked to request a shorter one.

What

An extremely long plan is now shown truncated and the approval option is withheld, with a message telling you to send feedback asking for a shorter plan or press Esc.

Details
  • The threshold is a fixed 200,000 characters of plan text.
  • Below the limit, plan approval behaves as before.
Evidence

approval is withheld; send feedback asking for a shorter plan, or press Esc
