SSE streaming calls now use wait_seconds + 15s read timeout instead of the global 15s client timeout. Fixes agent.listen() crashing when the server holds the connection open for 30s keepalive cycles. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Server now excludes terminal statuses (COMPLETED, FAILED, CANCELED, TIMED_OUT) by default. SDK gains optional status parameter to override the server default when needed (e.g. for debugging or audit). Backward-compatible: existing agents that call listen() without status= benefit from server-side zombie filtering automatically. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
When the SSE stream returns a 4xx/5xx, _raise_http_error accessed response.text inside a streaming context, causing httpx.ResponseNotRead. This crashed agents on transient 503s instead of allowing reconnect. Fix: call response.read() before accessing .text/.json(). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
statusparameter tolisten()and_iter_agent_intents_stream()?status=query param when explicitly provided, otherwise relies on server defaultContext
Agents connecting to SSE stream were receiving all historic intents including terminal ones (CANCELED, COMPLETED, FAILED, TIMED_OUT), forcing them to process hundreds of dead intents before reaching actionable work.
