Unclear It is not clear what this helper does or when it runs.

What

Claude Code contains a new helper that only runs behind the server-controlled switch tengu_virtual_parasol. A server-controlled switch is a setting Anthropic's servers can send to each account. Nearby, a new function writes a system record of the folder a session started in. It identifies the folder by its device and inode numbers, which are the numbers your file system uses to tell one folder apart from another.

Why

This is new plumbing. Nothing in this release shows it doing anything you would see.
