Remote sessions clear stale background tasks sooner

In remote sessions, tracked background tasks are now cleared when the remote worker goes away, when catch-up history is cut short, or on disconnect

What

In a remote session, Claude Code keeps a list of tasks running in the background. Before, that list was cleared only on reconnect. It is now also cleared when:

  • the remote machine doing the work goes away
  • the history sent to catch up is cut short
  • the connection drops

Claude Code records how many tasks were dropped.

Why

Background-task indicators for work that no longer exists should stop lingering in remote sessions.
