What
The tip messages that introduce dynamic workflows and workflow sizing (dynamic-workflows, workflow-size-prompting, and workflow-size-prompting-ambient) now check the enableWorkflows setting before showing. If it's off, either in your own settings or by the account's server-side default, the tips are suppressed.
The workflow-size-prompting tips also require that the current session has already used a tracked tool, and that the tip hasn't been dismissed ('snoozed') before.
Why
This keeps workflow-related tips from appearing for accounts where dynamic workflows (enableWorkflows) are turned off, avoiding advice about a feature you can't use.
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
