What

When Claude reads a file and the result is cut off because it was too long to send in one answer, Claude Code now adds a note to the result. The note gives:

  • the range of lines that arrived complete
  • the starting point and length to ask for when reading the next part of the file
Why

This helps Claude work through a large file a piece at a time without skipping or repeating lines.
