What: Privacy-preserving telemetry that tracks file operations (read, write, edit) using hashed identifiers.
How it works:
- File paths are hashed (SHA256, first 16 characters) for anonymization
- File content is hashed (SHA256) to detect duplicate operations
- Operation type and tool name are recorded
- Data sent via existing telemetry infrastructure
Details:
- Automatically enabled when telemetry is active
- Only metadata is recorded - actual file paths and content remain private
- Helps Anthropic understand common file operation patterns
