[Claude Code Adds /btw Side-Chain Conversation Feature, Allowing Questions Without Interrupting Tasks] BlockBeats News, March 11: Developer Lydia Hallie announced that Claude now supports a new feature for quickly asking questions within the current session, enabling users to query the AI without interrupting the main task. According to the introduction, this feature is implemented through the new command /btw, developed by Thariq. Users can initiate a side-chain conversation to ask temporary questions while Claude is performing tasks. This mode is read-only, does not invoke tools, and does not write into the main conversation history. Once the user closes the window, the related responses will automatically disappear.
