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.

Claude Code v2.1.247

Background task notifications stop re-attaching file context

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal2
Background Tasks

Background task completion notices no longer drag file attachments back into your turn.

What

Notifications that a background task finished, whether a local shell command, an auto-backgrounded MCP call or an MCP task poll, no longer pull file attachments into the turn.

Details
  • The notification is enqueued with an attachments-skipping flag that the print loop now honours.
  • Adopted tasks no longer get an [exited with code …] banner appended to their output.
Evidence

skipAttachments: !0

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