In one mode, that message now says the watch expires after a set time unless the command exits first, and that it may stop soon after Claude replies.\n\nThe closing sentence has also changed. It used to say that events may arrive while Claude is waiting for the user and are not the user's reply. It now says: \"An event that arrives after your reply is not the user's reply.\"\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes the wording Claude sees when it uses the tool.\n\n- Area: Monitor Tool\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
