Cloud sessions can hold off reconnecting while Claude waits for your answer

In a headless cloud session (one running on a remote machine with no screen of its own), a timer watches for silence on the connection and reconnects when nothing arrives. That timer can now pause while Claude has a question open for you, if its hold setting is on.

While it waits, Claude Code shows a notice that Claude is waiting for you to answer its request and will continue with your message once you do. Before, the timer reconnected on silence no matter what.
