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.

Session records now capture how a session ended

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal3
Sessions

Session records now store how a session ended and where its working copy came from.

What

A git-backed session record can carry an ended block with a reason, a line of up to 2000 characters, a timestamp and whether it was published; a missing reason falls back to ended_earlier. Session starts also record where the working copy came from (remote, bundle or overlay) and whether it was seeded.

Details
  • Non-git session records gained fields for tracked dependency directories, whether state is lost with the disk, and tombstones.
  • No gate; these fields are written whenever a session record is.
Evidence

ended_earlier

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