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 v2.1.229

Background session credentials are handed back to the credential store

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal2
Auth

Background sessions now return spent credential files to the credential store instead of deleting them.

What

Cleanup for background and daemon sessions now asks the credential store to discard a spent credential file rather than deleting it directly, falling back to a plain unlink only when no store is present.

Details
  • Applies in worker teardown, dispatch cleanup, and the session-record removal path.
Evidence

discardSpentCredentialFile

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