Unclear It is not clear whether this feature is available outside Anthropic's internal builds or what switches it on.

What

Claude Code has a feature that lets a message you send with Enter join the turn Claude is already working on, instead of waiting for it to finish. A turn is one round of Claude working on a request. While it is active, the hint enter joins the running turn appears.

With this feature on in Claude Code's internal builds, background polling events that would wake Claude only start a new turn when they are not marked as not starting one.

Why

You can add to what Claude is doing without waiting for the current turn to end.
