Previously the prompt distinguished only messages relayed via a coordinator session or returned from thread-fetch tools; it now also marks a third case: a message the person sent directly in the current thread, with a lead saying it was \"sent here, not relayed\". This is wired into the message-formatting path and controlled by a gate function (`tengu_projects_thread_reply_lead_killswitch`) that decides whether the new behavior is active.\n\n**Why** This helps Claude correctly understand how a message in a Claude Code Projects thread reached it, so it doesn't treat a directly-sent reply as if it had been relayed through a coordinator. The behavior sits behind a killswitch that defaults off, so it can be disabled if it causes problems.\n\n- Flag `tengu_projects_thread_reply_lead_killswitch`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.274; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Projects\n- Names: `tengu_projects_thread_reply_lead_killswitch`\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
