What
The browser bridge tool, which connects Claude Code to a browser like Chrome, gained a new multiBrowserPendingSelection flag. Device discovery (finding connected browser instances) now also runs, or re-runs, whenever a multi-browser selection is pending, not only when discovery had never completed before.
Why
This should make browser selection more reliable when multiple browsers are connected and a choice between them is still awaiting an answer, rather than getting stuck on stale discovery results.
