You'll notice
Claude Code now clamps overly long setTimeout/setInterval delays instead of letting them silently misbehave
What
Claude Code now wraps the global setTimeout and setInterval functions at startup so that any delay value greater than 2147483647 (Node.js's 32-bit limit for these timers) is automatically clamped down to that maximum before the timer runs. When a clamp happens, it logs a warning and, once per relevant case, records telemetry about it.
Why
Without this, a timer scheduled with too large a delay would silently fire almost immediately instead of after the intended wait, an easy-to-miss bug; clamping it and warning makes that situation visible instead of silent.
