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.

Remote Control re-mint retry loop and auth-specific failure messages

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal0
Remote Control

Remote Control now retries reconnecting with backoff and tells you to run /login when auth fails.

/login/remote-control
What

Credential re-mint after a transport close now retries with exponential backoff instead of giving up, and authentication failures get their own terminal messages telling you exactly which command to run.

Details
  • Backoff uses a 30s base with a 300s cap, showing "Remote Control server unreachable — retrying (attempt N)".
  • A rejected credential forces one OAuth refresh before the next attempt.
  • Terminal failures direct the user to run /login and then /remote-control.
Evidence

Claude.ai login expired — run /login, then /remote-control

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