Unclear It is not clear what the new number controls or what the asked_ahead value changes for a user.
What
When Claude Code asks the server for details about a project, the request now includes a value called asked_ahead.
Claude Code also reads a new number from remote configuration, meaning a setting Anthropic's servers send to the app rather than one you set yourself. Claude Code uses the number only if it is a finite number of zero or more, and falls back to a built-in value otherwise.
Why
Anthropic can now tune this number from the server without shipping a new version of Claude Code.
