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.

Claude Code v2.1.248

Full-screen panels now count as an open dialog

UI Panels

Status text and hints now hide while a full-screen panel is up.

What

New helpers treat a full-screen panel with no surrounding dialog host as a dialog for the purposes of suppressing other interface elements, so status text and hints return nothing while such a screen is up.

Details
  • The same suppression applies for the older dialog focus state and for other active panels
  • Only the helpers are present; nothing user-facing depends on them yet
Evidence

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