What

When a shell command is cancelled just before it starts, Claude Code now cleans up after it.

In this release's description of the Bash tool, which is what Claude reads to learn how to run commands, the 10-minute limit is said to apply to foreground commands. The description also gives a limit for background commands: 1800000 ms (30 minutes) by default and at most 7200000 ms (2 hours).

Why

Cancelling a command while it is starting no longer leaves stray output files behind.
