Claude Code now scans incoming messages for @-mentions, and if an idle teammate marked this way is directly mentioned by name, that pending-notification flag is cleared.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis stops an idle teammate from sending an unnecessary \"I'm idle\" notification after it's already been addressed directly, keeping the conversation less noisy.\n\n- Area: Team Messaging\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
