What

Claude Code can move a running session into the background so you can keep working. When that is cancelled, a message now says why. There are two reasons:

  • You have text in the input box that has not been sent. The message tells you to send it or clear it, then try again.
  • The turn (the stretch of work Claude does in reply to one message) was stopped.
Why

You find out why backgrounding did not happen instead of seeing it silently refused.
