The written instructions for one subagent gain two sections:\n\n- Suspected bugs are to be reported only when the evidence is strong.\n\n- A \"Changed lately:\" line near the end of the task lists file paths to read.\n\nThe instructions Claude Code actually sends show no change yet.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe guidance shapes what a review-style helper reports, aiming it at recently changed files and away from weak bug reports.\n\n- Area: Subagents\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
