Unclear The finding doesn't say what a 'recap_fold' segment actually contains or when it gets created.
What
Claude Code's transcript display can now include a new kind of segment called recap_fold. It's handled the same way as the existing speaker_label segment type in several places that control whether a message is shown, whether it counts toward live status, and how messages get folded together in the view. Like system and attachment messages, recap_fold segments are skipped when counting messages, and like speaker_label segments, they never match when searching the transcript.
Why
This lets the transcript view represent a new kind of grouped or summarized content without breaking existing search, counting, or display logic.
