When that is cancelled, a message now says why. There are two reasons:\n\n- 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.\n\n- The turn (the stretch of work Claude does in reply to one message) was stopped.\n\n**Why**\n\nYou find out why backgrounding did not happen instead of seeing it silently refused.\n\n- Area: Sessions\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
