A `focusView` field also now appears in this telemetry, apparently replacing an earlier field used for the same purpose.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is internal telemetry rather than a user-facing change, letting Claude Code track whether the extended-questions option is enabled at session start.\n\n- Area: Telemetry\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
