What probably matters to youSection of the release
What

A tip has been rewritten. It now says a side agent, a separate helper running alongside Claude, watches your back while Claude works on longer tasks. It looks for things worth knowing that you might miss and shows them above the prompt.

Before, the tip said that while Claude works, it offers one small thing worth learning from the conversation, above the prompt.

Why

The feature is now described as a helper that watches for things you might miss, not as a source of small things to learn.
