What
When output from a shell command is too long, Claude shows a shortened preview of it. Claude Code now puts a backslash after each opening angle bracket (<) in that preview. It adds a note saying the backslashes were added by Claude Code and are not in the output or the saved file. Markers already in the preview are kept.
Why
It stops text that looks like tags in command output from being read as instructions to Claude.
