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.

A subagent's plan submitted for team-lead approval is no longer dropped

Subagents

A subagent plan awaiting team-lead approval no longer vanishes in print mode.

What

When a subagent submits a plan for the team lead to approve and there is no per-task record to attach it to, such as in print mode, the pending approval is now stored on a shared session-wide slot so it can still be resolved later instead of vanishing.

Details
  • Reached only in the team-lead approval branch, and only when the per-agent task entry is missing.
