What

The system prompt is the set of instructions Claude Code gives the model before your conversation starts. It gains a new named section, original_games_guidance, which adds a line telling the model to build original games and not recreations of specific existing games.

  • original_games_guidance was added to the list of system prompt section names.
  • Where section names are grouped into categories, original_games is now grouped under additional_guidance. Before, that grouping handled only opus5_reduced_delegation.

Why

If you ask Claude to make a game, expect it to steer toward an original design rather than copying a specific existing game.
