Claude Code can now stop a running turn on its own when a follow-up arrives before any output appeared, if the connected client opts in
What
- A new
system/turn_preemptedevent (reasonrapid_followup) is sent when Claude Code itself stops a running turn because the person sent a follow-up message before the turn produced any output; any running shell commands are backgrounded rather than killed, and the follow-up is answered right away instead of waiting in queue. - This only happens when the connected client has declared support for it: a new SDK capability,
rapidFollowupPreempt(declared viadeclareRapidFollowupPreempt, read back assdkRapidFollowupPreempt()), mirrors the existingperTaskStopAffordancecapability and tells Claude Code the client knows how to handle aturn_preemptedevent. - It is also gated behind a rollout flag (
tengu_zippy_spindle), off by default, so both the client declaration and the flag must be enabled. Preemption is skipped for slash commands, bridge-originated messages, and similar cases where it wouldn't make sense.
Why Without this, sending a quick follow-up while Claude Code is still working on the previous message just queues it silently. With this enabled (and supported by the client), the follow-up can preempt the still-running turn so it gets addressed immediately.
