What
A session can have other machines attached to it. If Claude names one with the wrong capitalisation or with its "(offline)" label, Claude Code sends a correction. When that machine did not answer last time, the correction now says not to call it again in this turn and to tell you instead. It used to say a retry might fail.
The machine list no longer says that the next call to an offline machine will check again.
Why
Claude stops calling an unreachable machine over and over in one turn.
