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.

Interrupting from a remote client also stops background tasks

Remote Control

Interrupting from mobile, Slack or desktop now also stops your background tasks.

What

Interrupting a session from mobile, Slack or the desktop bridge used to abort only the current turn. It now aborts with an explicit "remote-cancel" reason and then sweeps the background task registry, so in-flight background tasks are stopped rather than left running. Live for any session with Remote Control enabled; no feature flag guards it, only the pre-existing check that a turn is in flight.

Details
  • The sweep is wrapped in try/catch; a throw is reported to the existing per-task-stop telemetry counter under bridge_interrupt_sweep_throw.
Evidence

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