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.

Background gate waits for its own flag evaluation before deciding

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal2
Internals

Background decisions wait for fresh feature-flag evaluation instead of using whatever was loaded.

What

A decision made from a background context now waits, with a timeout, for this process to finish evaluating its own feature flags rather than deciding on whatever was loaded at the time. If the wait times out or errors it falls back to cached flag values and records which happened.

Details
  • Internal timing and diagnostics only; no setting exposed.
Evidence

bg Fable gate: own GrowthBook evaluation not ready

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