When a session starts, Claude Code can restore that list. It used to do this only when the host (the program running Claude Code) asked for it. It can now also do it without a request, when all of these hold:\n\n- the `tengu_velvety_robin` switch is on; it is off unless turned on remotely\n\n- the saved list was read without error\n\n- the saved list belongs to the current session\n\n- the current task list is empty\n\nOtherwise nothing happens. In readings taken before this release, the flag server returned off for this site's account.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf the switch is turned on, resumed sessions would get their task lists back on their own.\n\n- Flag `tengu_velvety_robin`: 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: Background Tasks\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
