A new `background_tasks` control_request subtype lets an external caller background a running local shell tool by `tool_use_id`, and remote clients can query or clear background task state via the task registry.\n\n- Area: Remote Control\n- Names: `background_tasks`, `onBackgroundTasks`\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
