A nudge when Claude has gone several turns without telling you anything

Claude can be nudged to check in when it has gone quiet for several turns, off by default.

What probably matters to youSection of the release

A silent-turn reminder is present but needs CLAUDE_CODE_SILENT_TURN_REMINDER or a model that declares support, and none here does.

What

When Claude works for several turns without saying anything to you, a hidden reminder can be added to the conversation: "The user hasn't heard from you in a while. As you continue, keep them updated when there's something to tell". It is off unless CLAUDE_CODE_SILENT_TURN_REMINDER is set or the model in use declares support for it, and no model in this build does, so by default nobody sees it.

Details
  • The turn threshold comes from CLAUDE_CODE_SILENT_TURN_REMINDER_TURNS, otherwise a remote setting with a fallback of 5 turns. The value must be at least 1.
  • At most 3 reminders are sent per quiet stretch.
  • The reminder type is now registered across the attachment renderer, the reminder-kind list and the transcript, and has its own telemetry event.
  • Whether a model declares the capability comes from server-supplied data, so it can be switched on remotely without a new release.
Evidence

The user hasn't heard from you in a while. As you continue, keep them updated when there's something to tell, "batching_reminder_sent",, "The user hasn't heard from you in a while. As you continue, keep them updated when there's something to tell \u2014 a finding, a change of plan.", The user hasn't heard from you in a while.

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