A message has been added that tells Claude that such an agent \"was stopped and won't be resumed\". The message tells Claude to treat that agent's work as cancelled and to launch a new agent only if you explicitly ask for one.\n\nThe message is defined next to a remote switch that is off unless it is turned on from the server. The server returned off for this site's account and for an anonymous check in an earlier reading.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe message changes how Claude handles an agent that has been stopped. Claude should drop that agent's work and should not start a replacement unless you ask.\n\n- Flag `tengu_settled_wren`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.321; 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: Agents\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
