What probably matters to youSection of the release
What

Claude Code now treats relay as a separate kind of connection from its existing ones, and some behaviour that applied to every connection type now skips relay. A setting for grouping Chrome browser tabs has also been added.

Why

These point toward a new relay mode and per-session tab grouping in Chrome, but nothing shows what either does yet.

Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtWhat relay connections are used for, and how the Chrome tab group key is used, is not known.
