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.

Held cross-session messages no longer expire behind another dialog

Cross-Session Messaging

A held message from another session no longer times out while you're in another dialog.

What

The hold timer for messages arriving from another session now restarts when any visible dialog goes away, not only when Claude stops being busy, so a held-message prompt does not quietly time out while you are looking at a different dialog.

Details
  • The controller was rewritten from a UI effect into a plain subscription that takes its clock, store, transcript and dialog collaborators and returns a disposer.
Evidence

Released ${Le.length} held cross-session ${I(Le.length, "message")} to Claude's queue

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