What

With prompt suggestions on, Claude Code sometimes shows a hint about backing off from suggestions. It now shows only when you send a normal prompt to the main agent. It is skipped when you:

  • run a local slash command, a command starting with /
  • type an exit word such as exit, quit, :q or :wq
  • are in one other state
Why

You see fewer out-of-place hints when you type a command or quit.
