Headless cloud sessions need tengu_violin_wood plus an eligibility check that returns false unconditionally here.
Groundwork exists for running --cloud without an interactive terminal: a headless-cloud flag computed during argument checking exempts the invocation from the "requires an interactive terminal" refusal. It needs the tengu_violin_wood gate (off by default) and an eligibility check that returns false unconditionally in this build, so nothing can reach it here.
- The flag is threaded through session setup regardless.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
tengu_violin_wood Off in both readingsThe flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.
This account: off · anonymous baseline: off · compiled default in v2.1.232: off
These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.
Read once, for one account on one subscription tier, against v2.1.232. It isn't a statement about your account. What a flag value here can and cannot tell you
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.

`--cloud` works with a single repository at a time. The task runs in the cloud while you continue working locally. The older `--remote` spelling still works as a deprecated alias for `--cloud`.claude-code-on-the-web see the edit
A reading is one sample. Claude Code evaluates its flags remotely, so no client sees the targeting rule behind a value and this says nothing about your account.
