What
This release has three small additions:
- The status line can now show text for a workflow that is paused.
- Themes have a new colour,
autoAcceptShimmer, for a shimmer effect linked to auto-accept.
- A program that hosts Claude Code can no longer send it a message of the subtype
mcp_tasks_changed. Claude Code rejects it.
Why
These are small display and messaging changes. In practice, a host program that was sending mcp_tasks_changed will now have it refused.
