What
After Claude finishes a turn, it may save memories, which are notes it keeps for later sessions. This saving now runs as its own background task. A background task is work Claude Code does while you carry on. It appears in the task list labelled 'saving memories', and you can stop it like other background tasks.
Why
You may now see a 'saving memories' entry among your background tasks. You can stop it if you do not want it to finish.
