The new wording says that if a real problem is found with the task as specified, Claude should state the concern in a sentence or two, then keep building: delivering the complete work under explicitly stated assumptions while flagging important factors for the user.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is guidance for how Claude should respond when it spots an issue with the task while re-reading a file, favoring flagging the concern and continuing over stopping or silently changing scope.\n\n- Area: System Prompt\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
