What
The dialog shown at the bottom of the screen when exiting or interrupting Claude Code now accepts an exitDetachesToCaller flag. This changes its behavior for sessions that were launched by another session, such as a teammate or caller session, so that exiting detaches from that parent instead of terminating.
Why
This avoids accidentally terminating a sub-session that another session depends on; exiting it now hands control back to the caller instead of ending it outright.
