If it does, the change is routed through a new staging function instead of being written directly to disk. The result comes back marked `staged: true`, and in that case the usual steps of notifying the code editor (via LSP, the protocol editors use for things like autocomplete and diagnostics) and computing a diff are skipped.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis lets a file change be held in a staged state rather than immediately committed to disk, which matters for workflows that need to review or hold changes before they take effect. If you notice a file edit that doesn't immediately show up on disk or trigger the normal diff\/editor updates, this staged path is likely why.\n\n- Area: Settings\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
