What

When Claude Code sends a question to an interface host (the program displaying Claude Code), it now gets back the answer together with a reason. The reason is either that the question was never asked or the cause of the error. Before, any failure simply returned nothing. A separate check on arguments passed between steps also gained a path for arguments that were never applied.

Why

This is internal groundwork for interface hosts and does not change anything a reader does directly.
