6363The export carries logs and metrics. Cowork sessions, Code sessions, and the desktop application's own events arrive under the `service.name` values `cowork`, `claude-code-desktop`, and `claude-desktop` respectively. With [Unified Claude](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/unified-claude.md) on, a Cowork session started from the home screen also arrives under `cowork`. The export isn't checked against the [agent egress allowlist](#required-egress-paths), so `otlpEndpoint` doesn't need an entry in `coworkEgressAllowedHosts`; your perimeter firewall still needs to allow the host.

Events on the `claude-desktop` stream include `desktop_ssh_sandbox_check_failed`, described under [Sandbox status on the remote host](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/ssh-remote-sessions.md#sandbox-status-on-the-remote-host).

310310 
311* [SSH remote sessions](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/ssh-remote-sessions.md) download the remote-session components from `downloads.claude.ai`. The offline installer bundles those components for Linux x64 and arm64 hosts, so devices installed with it download them only when connecting to hosts on other platforms.
311* [SSH remote sessions](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/ssh-remote-sessions.md) download the remote-session components from `downloads.claude.ai`. The offline installer bundles those components for Linux x64 and arm64 hosts, so devices installed with it download them only when connecting to hosts on other platforms. See [SSH remote sessions with the offline installer](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/installation.md#ssh-remote-sessions-with-the-offline-installer).
312312* **Sign in with Claude Console** (the [Claude API](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/claude-api.md) with no static key or credential helper) loads a browser check from `hcaptcha.com` and `*.hcaptcha.com` on the Claude Console sign-in and approval pages.
313313* [Import from claude.ai](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/import.md) reaches `claude.ai`, `api.anthropic.com`, and `storage.googleapis.com` (for the export download) only while a user signs in to claude.ai and fetches an export in the import wizard. The claude.ai sign-in and approval pages also load a browser check from `hcaptcha.com` and `*.hcaptcha.com`.
314314* The [built-in browser](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/browser.md) contacts `releases.claude.com` for its [site safety check](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/browser.md#site-safety-check).
