What

  • A new named prompt bundle, opus_5_5_prompt_bundle, was added alongside the existing opus_5_prompt_bundle and fable_5_1_prompt_bundle entries, giving Opus 5.5 its own tailored system prompt bundle.
  • A capability-check set (including silent_turn_reminder and quizzical_shore) now also returns true when the opus_5_5_prompt_bundle remote-config flag is enabled (and a separate condition is false), so this capability turns on when the new bundle is active.

Why

This lets Claude Code apply Opus-5.5-specific prompt behavior in a controlled way, tied to a remote-config flag rather than being always on.
