What
The system prompt text used in the reminder-todo-nag context (shown as a nudge to update the to-do list) was rewritten. The new wording states that the requested scope is the deliverable, and that Claude should not quietly narrow, widen, or transform it.
Why
This reinforces that Claude should stick to what was actually asked for when nudged about its to-do list, rather than drifting the scope of the task in either direction.
