Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Conversation Summary Improvements

The conversation compaction system now has a separate prompt for summarizing only recent messages when earlier context is retained, avoiding redundant re-summarization of already-kept content.

Evidence

New partial summary prompt (search for "Your task is to create a detailed summary of the RECENT portion")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.

Other releases about the same thing. Found by shared names or similar wording; neither means one caused the other.
