When none is connected at that moment, Claude Code waits for one to appear. That wait, and the log line that went with it, now run through a separate shared step instead of being written in place.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe wait time and its log message may now be set in that shared step, so the time Claude Code waits for the browser extension could differ.\n\n- Area: Chrome\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
