What
Two changes:
Many terminals have an alternate screen, a separate full-screen view that programs draw on. Claude Code can now stay on it when one full-screen view hands over to the next, instead of leaving and re-entering it in between.
When Claude Code compacts a conversation (shortens it into a summary to save space), it now passes along the names of the tools that were used.
Why
Staying on the alternate screen between views should mean less flicker when the screen changes.
