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.

Cloud session status lines are quieter, and progress now drives the spinner

You'll notice
Useful4 Signal2
Cloud Sessions

Cloud session status chatter is filtered by level, so only important lines reach you.

What

Status lines streamed into a remote or cloud session (directory sync, home settings, hooks, plugin availability) now carry a level, and only the important ones reach you. info shows as a notice, warning still raises a high-priority notification, debug goes to the debug log only, and anything else is dropped. Previously every line was surfaced as a notice or a warning, so cloud sessions were noticeably chattier.

Details
  • progress lines no longer append a transcript entry. They set a held spinner status message instead, with any trailing ellipsis stripped and the text truncated to the terminal width; a later non-held update clears it.
  • Debug lines are written with an assembled prefix naming their source, such as [useRemoteSession] plugins: or [useRemoteSession] hooks: , and [headlessCloudClient] for the headless cloud client.
  • The warning about a trimmed executable search path for forwarded hooks dropped from info to debug, and the plugin-availability line drops from notice to debug in some cases.

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