It now measures the item's age from the later of the time it was saved and a second recorded time, instead of from the save time alone. The item still counts as fresh until 90% of its allowed lifetime has passed.\n\n**Why**\n\nIn practice, the saved item can stay valid for longer before Claude Code treats it as stale.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
