What
The startup logo now behaves differently. It shows on the home screen and fades out in two steps once the conversation moves away from home. After that it stays hidden for the rest of the session. If you have reduced motion turned on, it disappears without the fade.
Why
This is a visible change to the screen you see when Claude Code starts.
