Source Intelligence

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.

Messages sent while your settings upload now show progress and can be cancelled

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal1
Cloud Sessions

While a cloud session uploads your settings, your message is held with a progress line and Esc cancels it.

What

When a cloud session is still uploading this machine's settings, your message is held rather than dropped, and the terminal now says so: first a line noting that Esc cancels the message, then a repeating "Still sending this machine's settings (N s)" progress line.

Details
  • Press Esc to stop waiting; the send is then refused with a reason saying the settings are still uploading, and your next message will wait again.
  • Two timing knobs control the wait notice and a short grace period for typing ahead.
  • Only active in a cloud session that has settings from this machine to upload.
Evidence

Esc cancels the message

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