Claude Code 2.1.323 silently removes subagentStatusLine, killing per-agent observability
Mysterious-Travel344 · reddit · 2026-11-13
Anthropic quietly removed the subagentStatusLine setting in Claude Code 2.1.323, reverting subagent panels to a static look and silently ignoring existing configs with no deprecation notice. For multi-agent workflows this was the primary observability layer: real-time per-agent token/cost monitoring to catch runaway tasks draining quota, at-a-glance verification that subagents launched with the intended model and reasoning effort, and per-agent context-window health tracking. Cramming all of it into the single main statusLine doesn't scale with three or four concurrent subagents.
