Before, it checked at a fixed rate and re-queued work straight away after a reconnect. It can now:\n\n- watch a live stream of session updates, with its own check intervals while that stream is connected\n\n- skip work that is delivered a second time\n\n- limit how quickly it re-queues work when reconnecting after a sign-in token expires\n\n**Why**\n\nThis cuts down how often Claude Code has to ask for work when it is linked to remote sessions.\n\n- Area: Remote Control\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
