What

When a background job is found failed and unresumable and its record is older than 48 hours (172800000 ms), Claude Code now marks it as stopped with the note that it ended while the background service was off. Reopening it from fleet view takes a second press to confirm. No flag guards any of this.

Details
  • The mark is cleared once the session is successfully respawned.
  • Fleet view records tengu_fleetview_dead_epoch_offer when it shows the confirmation.
  • The session roster gained an epoch accessor alongside status and last-heard-at.
Evidence

ended while the background service was off

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