What
Claude Code used to build a prompt by joining a block of decision text with the line "The person asks:" followed by the question. That builder has been replaced. In its place is a check that tells whether a piece of text starts with a fixed header.
Why
The change is in the code Claude Code uses to prepare prompts for permission or classification decisions, so it can change how such a prompt is put together.
