"Claude is waiting for your input" fires when a background subagent finishes, even though nothing needs me #253

Closed

Description

@brauchle

What are you trying to do?

I run Claude Code (v2.1.280) in a wmux pane and it spawns a background subagent (Explore via the Agent tool, "Backgrounded agent"). The parent turn ends with "Waiting for 1 background agent to finish". A bit later, when the subagent is done, wmux flips the pane to Needs you with "Claude is waiting for your infput".

    Fixed in v2.14.0. The idle reminder (notification_type: idle_prompt, or the exact 'Claude is waiting for your input' text on older Claude Code) no longer sets Needs you or rings the bell. Permission prompts and questions still do. What went wrong: the background subagent's tool hooks arrive on the parent's pane after its Stop, which made the idle reminder look like a mid-turn prompt.
