Unclear Which models or settings turn these sections on is not known.
What
The system prompt is the set of standing instructions Claude Code gives the model before your conversation. The code that builds it gains several new sections, plus one changed setting:
userPrivacyis a new entry.hasFinishingWorkGuidancecontrols a new section about finishing work, listed asfinishing_work.hasMemoryGuidancecontrols a new section about memory, listed asnotes_and_feedback.researchLimitis no longer always empty (null). Before, it was hard-wired to nothing.
The finishing_work and notes_and_feedback names also appear in the list Claude Code uses to track which prompt sections differ between runs.
Why
These entries let the system prompt include extra instructions on how Claude wraps up work, how it handles memory and notes, and user privacy. When they are included, they can change how Claude behaves near the end of a task and what it keeps in memory. The findings do not show the wording of these sections or when they are included.
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
