What
Claude Code watches your settings files so it notices when they change. When that watcher fails to start, the error is now logged under a named reason, settingsWatchNotArmed, instead of as a plain log line.
Why
This only changes what is recorded for diagnosing problems; what Claude Code does is the same.
