What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
The exit-to-background dialog and the fork/background confirm dialog now count workflow subagents separately and tell you that any still running will restart from the beginning, while finished ones are kept. The confirm button label changes to match.
Details
The count is also reported in telemetry as a new field, workflow_agent_count.
Appears wherever workflow subagents exist in the session.
