It now processes that snapshot first before comparing it, instead of using it as it was. When that step produces a result, Claude Code passes on the snapshot and any changes straight away.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis may change when the model is told that the working folder has changed.\n\n- Area: Context\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
