Unclear It is not clear what the device bridge does for a user or whether this changes anything they would notice.

What

The checks that decide whether the device bridge is enabled, and whether it is still enabled, now go through a cloud client that is passed in to them. Claude Code also records more named stages of this work in its usage data, such as handing off a turn and checking a repository's git state.

Why

These are mostly internal changes, with nothing new to do for most users.
