What
When Claude uses a tool, meaning one of the actions it can take such as reading a file or running a command, Claude Code shows the tool's name on screen. Long names used to be cut short and ended with an ellipsis (…). Now names of a certain form are shown exactly as they are, and other names are shown in a standard display format.
Why
Long tool names are probably no longer cut off, so you can see which tool is being used.
