What
A subagent is a helper that Claude Code starts to work on part of a task alongside the main conversation. When you reach a usage limit, Claude Code can allow a short grace period before the limit takes effect. Claude Code now has a separate notice for when that grace period is released for a subagent. Before this build there was only one notice, used in every case.
Why
In practice, the end of a grace period can now be handled or reported differently for a subagent than for the main conversation.
