It can now check each piece against a size limit, which is only passed in for hosted sessions:\n\n- A piece within the limit is handled as before.\n\n- A piece over the limit is replaced by a smaller version if one fits.\n\n- A piece with no smaller version that fits is dropped, and Claude Code is told it was refused.\n\nBefore, every piece was handled whatever its size.\n\n**Why**\n\nOversized updates in hosted sessions would be dropped or trimmed instead of processed. Without a limit set, nothing changes.\n\n- Area: Cloud Sessions\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
