A subagent is a helper Claude starts to work on part of a task. The tool's result is kept for use inside subagents only when the `CLAUDE_CODE_ATTACHMENTS_BY_PATH` environment variable is set. An environment variable is a named value you set in your shell before starting Claude Code. Before, a remote switch from Anthropic's servers could also turn this on.\n\nThe tool also now carries a short description of when to use it.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf your account had the remote switch on, attachment results are no longer kept inside subagents unless you set `CLAUDE_CODE_ATTACHMENTS_BY_PATH` yourself.\n\n- Flag `tengu_lucky_whisper`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.323; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: not a boolean we can read) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Subagents\n- Names: `CLAUDE_CODE_ATTACHMENTS_BY_PATH`\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
