Before, an early resume always reread it.\n\n- `thinkingStartGoesAtOnce`, read from the server switch `tengu_nimble_doorbell`, default false.\n\n- `thinkingFlushMs`, read from `tengu_hashed_lagoon`, default 0.\n\n- `liveTwinWaitMs`, read from `tengu_quirky_volcano`, default 0.\n\n- `skipsGoodbyeDuringResumeLoad`, read from `tengu_jolly_pudding`.\n\n- A new `waitForMoreMs` delay holds back live pieces of the stream that contain only assistant text until the matching upload is done.\n\nWith their built-in defaults these settings do nothing. In a reading taken before this release, the server returned `tengu_nimble_doorbell` off for this site's account and for a signed-out baseline. Nothing has been read about the other three switches.\n\n**Why**\n\nThese are settings for how quickly cloud sessions resume and how their streamed output is timed. Where they are turned on, resuming could be faster because the transcript is not reread when it is already current.\n\n- Flag `tengu_hashed_lagoon`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.319; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: not a boolean we can read) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Flag `tengu_quirky_volcano`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.319; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: not a boolean we can read) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Flag `tengu_nimble_doorbell`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.319; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Cloud Sessions\n- Names: `CLAUDE_CODE_CCR_SKIP_HYDRATE_ON_CURRENT_TIP`\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 5\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
