A tool here is an action Claude can take. The text now says that a result reporting no event can come at the same time as a scheduled prompt or a message held for the end of the turn. It also says those arrive only after Claude ends its turn.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf this text reaches Claude, it changes how Claude handles waiting for events. The captured prompts show no change, so the text may not be in use yet.\n\n- Area: Tool Prompts\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
