File Operation Telemetry

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
