What
When Claude Code fails to select a browser through its Chrome bridge, telemetry now separates two cases. Telemetry is usage data sent to Anthropic. If the bridge could not be reached, it reports bridge_unreachable. Other failures are still reported as select_failed. Before this change, every failure was reported as select_failed. The message for when no browsers are found now uses shared wording.
Why
The usage data now tells connection problems apart from other selection failures. Nothing changes in what you do.
