With it, the helper either takes the same connection up again or does not start at all. It never makes a new link. This is used when the app quit or updated while the helper was serving a request and wants the same connection back.\n\n**Why**\n\nClaude Desktop can carry on with the same connection after it restarts or updates, without having to link again. If you only use Claude Code in a terminal, this has no direct effect.\n\n- Area: Desktop App\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
