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.

Remote tasks stuck waiting on input are failed with a pointer to the cloud UI

Cloud Sessions

A remote task stuck waiting on input now fails as blocked and tells you where to answer it.

Feature flag
tengu_coral_anchor Not enough to say

Nothing here resolved what this flag was doing on this version, so nothing here should be read as on or off.

Read once, for one account on one subscription tier, against v2.1.239. It isn't a statement about your account. What a flag value here can and cannot tell you

What

A remote session that keeps asking for something this session cannot answer is now marked failed as "blocked" rather than polling forever, and you are told to answer it in the cloud or relaunch with a permission mode that does not prompt. The gate tengu_coral_anchor defaults to true in the build, so this is live unless remote config turns it off.

Details
  • Stalls are counted only when the remote session reports it requires action and no permission answer is already in flight.
  • The threshold is 3 consecutive stalls, raised to 15 once this session has successfully forwarded an answer at least once.
Evidence

the cloud session is waiting on input (a question, or a permission prompt this session couldn't answer for it).

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