What
Claude Code has a new short hint that points you to /tasks, the command for viewing and managing background work. It reads either "/tasks to view" or "/tasks to view running dynamic workflows". The leading "Running in background · " only appears when a remote background task with that id exists and its remote worker has not been reported gone.
Why
The hint tells you where to look for work that is running in the background or as a workflow.
Names in the bundle/tasks
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Added since
A small documentation edit on Scientific Computing Charter touched a line naming /tasks after this was published.

Confirmed since
Anthropic's documentation has since written up /tasks, on Explore the .claude directory.
