The tip line shown under the spinner while Claude works is now driven by an internal tips plugin instead of being hardcoded in the REPL
What
- The short tip line shown under the spinner while Claude Code is working has been rebuilt as an internal plugin (called
tips), with its own pipeline for picking candidate tips, tracking relevance and failures, applying cooldowns and lifetime caps, and sorting by priority. Tips can come from the organization or from marketplace plugins. - The REPL no longer sets the spinner tip directly; a
TurnControllernow carries a_spinnerTipHandoffobject that gets "seated" and "vacated" against a shared registry to hand control of the tip display to the plugin.
Why Moving tip selection into a plugin lets tips come from more sources (org-provided or marketplace plugins) and be governed by shared rules like cooldowns and caps, instead of being chosen by a single hardcoded function.
