What
When a remote session is declined, Claude Code now stops its work and marks the session refused, with the title "Couldn't start". It then archives the session, moving it out of the active list. Retries of stopping that work can now also be cancelled partway through, which they could not be before.
Why
Declined remote sessions are cleaned up instead of being left behind.
