What
--max-turns caps how many turns a run can take. A turn is one round of Claude reading a message and replying.
Claude Code can now mark this option as lost. The reason it records is that the service did not confirm the turn limit, so it assumes no limit is being enforced.
Why
A run you started with --max-turns may not actually stop at that number. Don't rely on the limit alone when it hasn't been confirmed.
