Claude Code v2.1.247

Claude Desktop sessions announce the branch's open PR on start

You'll notice
Useful2 Signal3
Pull Requests

Starting a new Claude Desktop session announces the branch's open pull request once; resumed sessions stay quiet.

What

Pull request announcements gained a "started" verb, sent once when a new Claude Desktop session first initializes, for the open change on the branch the working directory was on. Resumed sessions do not send it.

Details
  • Joins the existing verbs such as "checked-out", which is sent for a gh pr checkout.
  • Fires at first initialize only, so reattaching to an existing session produces no announcement.
Evidence

'checked-out' for gh pr checkout, or 'started' for the open change on the branch the session's working directory was on when a Claude Desktop session began

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