DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. 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.

Claude Code v2.1.169

"Remote Session" Renamed to "Cloud Session" Throughout

What

All user-facing text that previously said "remote session", "remote agent", or "background tasks" (in the context of cloud-based agents) now says "cloud session" or "cloud agent". This is a branding/terminology update with no behavior change.

Details
  • UI banners, status lines, settings descriptions, error messages, confirmation dialogs
  • The remote settings key is now described as "Cloud session configuration" rather than "Remote session configuration"
  • Skill prompts like "When the user wants to schedule a recurring remote agent" now read "cloud agent"
Evidence

Mass rename (search for "Cloud session details dismissed" or "Cloud agent launched")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
