Unclear Whether the switches that hold back these resumes are on or off by default is not stated.
What
When you resume a session, Claude Code now checks whether the last turn ended on an API error. A turn is one round of Claude working on your message, and an API error is a failure from Anthropic's servers. The errors it checks for are:
a rate limit
a model that could not be found
a server error
a missing request token
It records an event when this happens. A switch can stop Claude Code from resuming such a turn. A separate, remotely controlled switch makes Claude Code refuse to resume when a later command was already waiting in the queue. Before, this check was made only when the turn had been cut off while sending your prompt.
Why
This changes whether a resumed session runs a failed turn again, which you will notice when you come back to it.
