What
When you or Claude send messages while work is in progress, they wait in a queue. Claude Code checks the front of that queue to see whether a message can be delivered. That check now only looks at messages belonging to the same agent (a separate Claude instance handling part of a task). Messages from a different agent that are waiting, or marked to go now, no longer stop this agent's message from being delivered.
Why
This can stop one agent's queue from getting stuck behind messages meant for another agent.
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 doubtWhat the earlier check matched is not known, so it is unclear how often messages were actually held up before.
