It can run in the background while you keep working. Claude Code shows a progress row for each subagent.\n\nFor a background subagent that has finished, that row no longer shows the task description. It also no longer falls back to the text \"Running in the background\" when there is no description.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is a small display change. Finished background agents show less text in their progress rows.\n\n- Area: Subagents\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
