What
Claude Code can now describe a progress element as part of the screens it sends to other apps. A progress element shows how far along a task is. It has a label, a value from 0 to 1, optional text for the value, and a colour.
A mobile app that says it can draw progress elements receives the progress element itself.
Any other app receives the same information as ordinary boxes and text.
In the terminal, the label is drawn dimmed, alongside the value written out as text.
On mobile, a progress element that is not on the list of elements the app can draw is now converted into something it can show. Before, it was dropped.
Why
This prepares for real progress bars in the mobile app. If you use the terminal, you only see a text version.
