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.

Mid-turn backgrounding tracked by a small state object

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal2
Background Tasks

Backgrounding a turn mid-flight is tracked more explicitly, and the turn is properly ended.

What

The bookkeeping for a backgrounding request that arrives during a turn moved from a reference plus a boolean to an object with explicit clear, fork-in-flight and idle-fork-mid-turn transitions, and the turn is now explicitly ended for the tracked message when the fork proceeds.

Details
  • Clearing the conversation now also receives the session hook registry.
