Unclear It does not say what makes a worker one where only the session stream may deliver input.
What
Standard input is the channel a program reads typed or piped text from. Claude Code now filters what arrives there when it runs as a remote worker. On some workers, only the session stream, the connection that carries the session itself, may deliver input. A line that arrives on standard input on such a worker is dropped, and Claude Code logs a warning saying it dropped a line and did nothing with it.
Why
This stops a remote worker from acting on text pushed in through the wrong channel, which makes it harder to slip commands into a worker from outside the session.
