Good morning, it's Wednesday, November 11th, 2026.
The big story today is Claude in structured view finally behaving like a first-class citizen, with parallel work you can actually see and stop.
First, subagents and background work. PR 5553 adopts the ACP subagents proposal, so each Claude subagent becomes a child session with its own state instead of a 90-second stalled guess, with per-agent stop in the web dashboard and Control T in the terminal. That pairs with PR 5397, which lists background shells with…
Second, resilience under load and restarts. PR 5252 moves worker event saves to a bounded writer queue so slow database writes don't stall the runner socket past its two-second deadline. PR 5452 fixes five restart failure modes that left sessions stuck after an AoE restart, PR 5464 ties retained history to content…
What's next: if you run Claude, update the adapter and verify Auto mode and your Fast mode picks survive reset, and if you test nightlies, the new release-plz nightly channel in PR 5481 plus faster Playwright on eight cores in PR 5583 should shorten feedback. Security note: environment values no longer leak via…
