Zod is a library Claude Code uses internally to validate data shapes.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is an internal startup ordering change. It does not add a user-facing feature, but it means Zod is set up consistently before the rest of the program runs.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5"}
