What
When a running foreground command is moved to the background specifically so a message you sent mid-run can reach Claude, the result now states that the command was not interrupted and is still running, instead of looking like a timeout or a manual backgrounding.
Details
Driven by a distinct internal state for message-triggered backgrounding, separate from timeout and explicit backgrounding.
The message includes the background task ID so the task can still be followed.
Evidence
Command was moved to the background (ID: ${e}) so that a message that arrived while it was running can reach you; it was not interrupted.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
