Unclear What Yj(e) checks and which rate-limit types are in the allowed set are not stated.
What
The function that decides whether to show the rate-limit banner now requires Yj(e) to be true, a defined rateLimitType on the event, and that type to be part of a specific allowed set. Previously it relied on a simpler check based on whether a request dialog was showing and a suppression flag.
Why
This narrows when the rate-limit banner appears, so it should now only show for the specific kinds of rate limits Claude Code has decided are worth surfacing, rather than for any rate-limit event that isn't otherwise suppressed.
