Unclear The default number of seconds the remote check supplies is not known, so it is unclear whether the reminder now fires for people who set nothing.
What
The silent-turn reminder nudges Claude when it has gone quiet for a while. Claude Code now looks for its time limit, measured in seconds, in this order:
CLAUDE_CODE_SILENT_TURN_REMINDER_SECONDS, if you set it- a value configured for the model in use
- a default number of seconds supplied by a remote check
The third step is the difference. Before, if neither of the first two gave a usable value, there was no time-based reminder at all.
Why
People who never set a seconds value may start seeing Claude nudged after a period of silence. Setting CLAUDE_CODE_SILENT_TURN_REMINDER_SECONDS yourself still takes priority over everything else.
