Unclear It is not clear whether Notification matchers match any differently now.

What

A hook is a command you set to run when something happens in Claude Code, and a matcher limits which events trigger it. The details Claude Code keeps about the Notification hook's matcher no longer say it matches on the notification_type field. The list of values it accepts, including elicitation_complete and elicitation_response, is unchanged.

Why

This could change how the matcher is described or checked where hooks are set up.
