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.

PR status polling counts consecutive not-modified responses

PR polling counts repeated not-modified replies, groundwork for backing off on quiet pull requests.

What

The GitHub pull request status poller now tracks how many times in a row the API answered "not modified", resetting the count whenever something actually changes. This is the groundwork for backing off polling on quiet PRs.

Evidence

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