What
When syncing files down from a cloud session, replacement notes now tell apart a local copy that is an earlier version Claude wrote from your own uncommitted edits, and deletions are accounted for in detail.
Details
New counters reported by the sync worker include deletes considered, files moved to trash, files kept because they changed, tombstone mismatches, refused trash operations, deletions withheld remotely, deletions capped, and earlier cloud versions kept.
The worker also logs when authentication recovers after a run was refused.
