What
When a tool call needs to run on another machine (for example through Remote Control or cloud sessions) and that machine hasn't reconnected yet after its cloud worker was replaced, Claude Code now shows specific text explaining what's happening. There are distinct messages for:
the machine attached earlier but hasn't reconnected yet
the machine did not reconnect and the wait timed out
no machine at all currently serves the requested tool
Why
This replaces vague or missing feedback with a clear explanation of why a cross-machine tool call is stuck or was refused.
