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

Worker kill retry now repeats the kill

You'll notice
Useful2 Signal2
Background Tasks

Killing a worker that is still starting now actually retries the kill, up to ten times.

What

When killing a worker that is still starting, the retry loop was re-issuing a differently shaped request. It now repeats the same kill request with the same handoff and evict arguments, up to 10 times with a 200ms wait between attempts.

Details
  • The fallback lookup used when the job no longer exists gets an extra argument.
Evidence

op: "kill"

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