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.

The plan is fetched asynchronously, and filesystem paths became conditional

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal3
Plan Mode

Plans are fetched asynchronously, and file paths appear in responses only for certain sessions.

What

Fetching the current plan over the control channel now goes through the async path using the session's storage handle rather than a synchronous read. Plan and file-read responses now include the filesystem path only for certain sessions: reads add an absolute path when a per-session check holds, and plan responses include a path when it does not. Which sessions that check selects is decided elsewhere in the bundle.

Evidence

getPlanAsync

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