What
The panes shown above the input prompt (the "AbovePrompt" area) can now be focused directly:
- Clicking a pane focuses it
- Pressing a digit key jumps focus to the correspondingly numbered pane
- Focus automatically resets if the underlying pane data changes out from under you
Why
This makes it faster to navigate between multiple panes shown above the prompt without needing to cycle through them one at a time.

The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Confirmed since
Anthropic's documentation has since written up AbovePrompt, on Customize keyboard shortcuts.
