What
This build contains several small additions that do not yet add anything you can use:
- A
ui.backdrop entry in the list of interface actions
- A record of which model an effort level was picked for, in the usage data Claude Code reports
- A count of when typing "ultrathink" raised the effort level, in the status information
- An extra detail about work across your own tasks, in the usage data for auto mode thread replies
- The plan document in a session's state is marked as not saved with the session
- A correction to which value is reported in the usage data for held uploads
Why
These look like early groundwork for features still being built. None of them has a visible effect on its own.
