A Claude Code settings key, read out of the shipped bundle. It has been in the build since v2.1.287, including the newest one read.

Malformed file snapshot records are skipped rather than returned when restoring from history.

Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.219.

One row per release since the first build this name was read out of. Absent means the build was read and the name was not in it, never mined means no bundle for that release was ever archived, and a declared type or a default is only ever what that release's own bundle stated.
