How they are folded used to be decided by reading the remote flag `tengu_chair_sermon` directly each time a message was built. It is now decided once per conversation and stored as `reminderFold`. The value is chosen in this order:\n\n- an explicit `reminderFold` option\n\n- a value already stored on the conversation\n\n- the `tengu_chair_sermon` flag\n\nThe step that pairs tool calls with their results, `ensureToolResultPairing`, uses the same stored value. When a stored value is reused, the event `tengu_reminder_fold_replayed` is recorded with `fold`, `cached`, `matched` and `cachedSource`.\n\n**Why**\n\nA long or resumed conversation keeps the reminder-folding mode it started with, even if the remote flag changes partway through. Its messages stay built the same way from start to finish.\n\n- Flag `tengu_chair_sermon`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.281; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: System Reminders\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
