What
The effort_level value logged with the tengu_input_prompt telemetry event is now calculated using the session's active permission layers (the rules that govern what Claude Code is allowed to do), in addition to the model and input options it already considered.
Why
This makes the recorded effort level reflect permission context as well as model and input settings, giving a more complete picture in telemetry of how a given turn's effort was determined.
