What
/clear starts a new conversation with empty context. The previous conversation stays saved, and you can return to it with /resume. A saved conversation can hold a resume checkpoint, a marked point that resuming picks up from.
After /clear, Claude Code now looks through the saved record of the conversation it left behind. If that record holds a resume checkpoint, Claude Code adds an entry withdrawing it. If it cannot read the file, or finds no checkpoint, it notes that in its log and changes nothing.
Why
When you later go back to a cleared conversation, it should not resume to a checkpoint that is out of date.
