What probably matters to youSection of the release
Unclear Where this policy comes from, and whether a user can set it, is not stated.
What
When a turn ends without Claude giving a reply, Claude Code can send it back and ask for one. Before, this happened once with fixed text. Alongside the existing Remote Control mode, there is now a policy mode with these settings:
terminal_tools
ask_text: the text used to ask again
max_asks_after_person: how many times to ask after a message from a person
max_asks_after_server_event: how many times to ask after an event from the server
It can ask several times. It does not ask when the turn ended in an API error, or stopped for reasons such as reaching the length limit (max_tokens) or a refusal.
Why
Re-asking driven by a policy can change how sessions end.
