What

Claude Code can run as a headless cloud worker: a copy running on a server with no screen of its own, driven by another app. A new server-side switch now controls what is called widget context there. Widgets are interactive pieces, such as those from MCP Apps, whose state the driving app can send along. With the switch on, the tool states that arrive with a message are kept, up to 256 states or 1 MiB in total.

The worker also sends its worker epoch value when either this switch or a related one is on. The message format gains fields for the host's tool interface and for the path of synced skills.

Why

It gives the app that drives a cloud session a way to hand the state of its widgets over to Claude Code.
