What

When replying to a comment on an artifact fails because the request has already been answered, Claude Code now reads the existing reply out of the error response and returns it, distinguishing an answer you gave yourself from one someone else gave.

Details
  • The two outcomes are reported separately as summon_answered_own and summon_answered_elsewhere.
  • The existing reply is validated against an id pattern before being returned.
  • Every reply telemetry call now carries a resend flag recording whether the attempt was a retry.

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