What

When Claude Code runs a shell command in a remote session (one running on another machine rather than your own), it can now cut the command's normal output and its error output to a given number of characters, if a limit is supplied. When no limit is supplied, the output is shortened the same way it was before.

The remote command runner also no longer returns an identifier for each piece of output.

Why

A cap like this limits how much command output a remote session sends back, which matters for commands that print a lot.

How sure we are
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtNothing in this build appears to supply the limit yet, so the cap may have no effect for now.
