What
Claude Code adds a new internal message type, set_prompt_suggestions_paused, that lets the host application pause or unpause generation of end-of-turn prompt suggestions while running. This is in addition to the existing promptSuggestions startup option and user setting, which only applied at initialization.
Why
This lets a host stop generating prompt suggestions on the fly, for example when its input box isn't visible, instead of needing to decide at startup whether suggestions should ever appear.
