Claude Code adds graceful stopping

This is a small UX improvement with outsized value: graceful handoffs make quota limits less disruptive for developers running autonomous agents.

• –Lets agents complete a coherent stopping point instead of leaving partial edits or unfinished tests.
• –Particularly useful for refactors, migrations, and other long-running tasks Claude Code is designed to handle.
• –The tradeoff is real: the wrap-up consumes weekly quota, so agents should prioritize tests, diffs, and next steps.
• –It improves the failure mode but does not increase overall capacity; users still need to manage five-hour and weekly limits.
• –Early community reaction is positive, though developers are questioning how much quota the graceful shutdown consumes.
