Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

 | `--remote-control`, `--rc`                      | Start an interactive session with [Remote Control](/docs/en/remote-control#start-a-remote-control-session) enabled so you can also control it from claude.ai or the Claude app. Optionally pass a name for the session                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        | `claude --remote-control "My Project"`                                                              |
 | `--remote-control-session-name-prefix <prefix>` | Prefix for auto-generated [Remote Control](/docs/en/remote-control) session names when no explicit name is set. Defaults to your machine's hostname, producing names like `myhost-graceful-unicorn`. Set `CLAUDE_REMOTE_CONTROL_SESSION_NAME_PREFIX` for the same effect                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      | `claude remote-control --remote-control-session-name-prefix dev-box`                                |
 | `--replay-user-messages`                        | Re-emit user messages from stdin back on stdout for acknowledgment. Requires `--input-format stream-json` and `--output-format stream-json`                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | `claude -p --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json --verbose --replay-user-messages` |
+| `--restricted`                                  | Start in restricted mode. Use it when an evaluation harness drives `claude` on a shared machine and Claude Code must not run commands or read that machine's user and project settings. Claude Code removes the built-in tools that run commands or code, and WebFetch, unless you name them individually in `--tools`, not through its `default` preset. It also confines the built-in file tools to the [working directories](/docs/en/permissions#working-directories), loads only [managed settings](/docs/en/managed-settings) and `--settings`, and refuses [`bypassPermissions`](/docs/en/permission-modes#skip-all-checks-with-bypasspermissions-mode). Requires Claude Code v2.1.248 or later                                                                                                                                                                                  | `claude --restricted -p "query"`                                                                    |
 | `--resume`, `-r`                                | Resume a specific session by ID or name, or show an interactive picker to choose a session. The picker and name search include sessions that added this directory with `/add-dir`. When you pass a session ID, Claude Code searches the current project directory and its git worktrees, then every other project on this machine. Before v2.1.223, the ID search covered only the current project directory and its git worktrees. [Background sessions](/docs/en/agent-view) appear in the picker marked with `bg`                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          | `claude --resume auth-refactor`                                                                     |
 | `--safe-mode`                                   | Start with all customizations disabled to troubleshoot a broken configuration: CLAUDE.md, skills, plugins, hooks, MCP servers, custom commands and agents, output styles, workflows, custom themes, custom keybindings, status line and file-suggestion commands, LSP servers, and auto memory do not load. Authentication, model selection, built-in tools, and permissions work normally, which differs from [`--bare`](/docs/en/headless#start-faster-with-bare-mode). Managed settings policy still applies, including policy-configured hooks, status line, and file-suggestion commands; managed plugins, managed skills, managed CLAUDE.md, and policy-configured MCP servers do not. Useful for checking whether a customization is what triggers [automatic model fallback](/docs/en/model-config#automatic-model-fallback).

 | `--session-id`                                  | Use a specific session ID for the conversation (must be a valid UUID)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    | `claude --session-id "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"`                                        |
