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.

Cloud directory sync can pull your local files mid-turn

You'll notice
Useful4 Signal4
File Sync

Cloud sessions can pull in your latest local edits between tool calls, not just at turn edges.

What

The sync worker that mirrors files between your machine and a cloud session can now take in the latest local changes between tool calls, not just at the start or end of a turn. Uploads are recorded with the trigger "between_tools" and a new telemetry event reports the outcome and how long the take-in took.

Details
  • New entry point on the git-based sync worker for mid-turn take-in, plus a predicate that checks whether anything is pending.
  • No feature flag guards this path; it runs when the sync worker is armed and listening and there are staged local changes waiting.
