# Checkpoints are created automatically with every user prompt
# To rewind, press Esc twice or use:
/rewind
# Then choose: Restore code and conversation, Restore conversation,
# Restore code, Summarize from here, or Never mind

Dynamic Workflows	Deterministic multi-agent orchestration via `/workflows` (v2.1.154)	Comprehensive audits, migrations, scale-out
Scheduled Tasks	Recurring tasks with `/loop` and cron tools	Automated recurring workflows
Chrome Integration	Browser automation via headless Chromium	Web testing and scraping
Remote Control (expanded)	Connection methods, security, comparison table, device cards	Remote session management (no longer a research preview)
Cross-Session Messaging	`SendMessage` / `ListAgents`, including `notify_when_idle` (v2.1.236)	Coordinating sessions on the same machine

Advanced Features Covered:

Planning Mode

Create detailed implementation plans
Time estimates and risk assessment
Systematic task breakdown

Extended Thinking

Deep reasoning for complex problems
Architectural decision analysis
Trade-off evaluation

Background Tasks

Long-running operations without blocking
Parallel development workflows
Task management and monitoring

Dynamic Workflows (v2.1.154)

Deterministic orchestration of tens-to-hundreds of background subagents
Fan-out / pipeline / parallel stages for comprehensive coverage
View runs with /workflows; the Ultracode toggle in /effort (/effort ultracode [on|off]) turns it on for a session without changing the effort level (v2.1.284); the ultracode setting makes it persist
Default size guideline is medium (aim for fewer than 10 agents) as of v2.1.219 — change it with Dynamic workflow size in /config

Permission Modes

manual: Ask for approval on risky actions (renamed from default in v2.1.200; default still accepted)
acceptEdits: Auto-accept file edits, ask for others
plan: Read-only analysis, no modifications
auto: Everything, with background safety checks — a classifier reviews commands and protected-directory writes (configured via the autoMode settings object)
dontAsk: Only pre-approved tools — auto-denies every call that would otherwise prompt. Claude runs only permissions.allow matches, read-only Bash commands, and calls approved by a PreToolUse hook
bypassPermissions: Accept all (requires --dangerously-skip-permissions)

Headless Mode (`claude -p`)

CI/CD integration
Automated task execution
Batch processing

Session Management

Multiple work sessions
Session switching and saving
Session persistence

Interactive Features

Keyboard shortcuts
Command history
Tab completion
Multi-line input

Configuration

Comprehensive settings management
Environment-specific configs
Per-project customization

Scheduled Tasks

Recurring tasks with /loop command
Cron tools: CronCreate, CronList, CronDelete
Automated recurring workflows

Chrome Integration

Browser automation via headless Chromium
Web testing and scraping capabilities
Page interaction and data extraction

Remote Control (expanded)

Connection methods and protocols
Security considerations and best practices
Comparison table of remote access options
Out of research preview — a machine running claude remote-control appears as a device card in the Claude app's Code tab

Cross-Session Messaging

SendMessage between sessions on the same machine
notify_when_idle — one opt-in notice when the other session next goes idle (v2.1.236)
ListAgents reports the session's own name and lists live teammates (v2.1.239)

Keyboard Customization

Custom keybindings configuration
Chord support for multi-key shortcuts
Context-aware keybinding activation

Desktop App (expanded)

Connectors for IDE integration
launch.json configuration
Enterprise features and deployment
