Messages can be addressed to a specific session by socket or id, blocked unless peer messaging is enabled.
uds: and bridge: addressing plus delivery timing telemetry are validated off unless CLAUDE_CODE_HARBOR_KITE is set.
tengu_harbor_kite On for this account, and not off by defaultThe flag server returned on for the one account this site reads, and nothing in this release compiles it off by default. The compiled default is shown below, and says which it is when we cannot read one: a fifth of gates compile in a string or a number rather than on or off, and most published releases have no gate table behind them at all. No client can see what the server returns for your account.

What's wrong with this entry?
SendMessage can now target a peer by local socket (uds:) or by session id (bridge:), with failure advice that distinguishes a stale socket from a busy pipe, and it records a send_message_delivery event with the route taken and the time it took. Both address schemes are refused at validation time unless the peer feature is on, which needs tengu_harbor_kite or CLAUDE_CODE_HARBOR_KITE and a non-Windows machine.
- A socket that is gone (connection refused or missing) and a pipe that is busy produce different guidance.
- The delivery event also carries how long the send waited when it was blocked.
- With
isolatePeerMachineson, sending to a cloud session now requires an explicit approval prompt.
