When Claude Code marks some of those results as cut, it can now replace each one with a shorter piece of placeholder text. It only makes the swap when the placeholder is actually shorter than the original.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes what the model sees of earlier tool output in a long conversation, so it uses less of the available space.\n\n- Flag `tengu_adaptive_pinwheel`: 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: on) 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- Flag `tengu_wise_pearl`: 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: Tool Results\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
