Claude Code v2.1.185 Softens the Stream-Stall Hint — 'Waiting for API response' After 20s, Not 10s

Releasebot·low signal

The June 21 release reworks the mid-stream stall notification to read 'Waiting for API response · will retry in …' instead of the alarming 'No response from API · Retrying in …', and only triggers after 20 seconds of silence rather than 10. Small UX change, but it reduces false-alarm anxiety during long reasoning runs where brief silences are normal.
