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 tells you when a session was claimed elsewhere

Remote Control

When another connection claims your session, you're told it ended elsewhere instead of getting a reconnect suggestion.

/remote-control
What

When another connection takes over your session, the disconnect is now reported as ended_elsewhere rather than as a generic drop, and Claude Code stops suggesting you run /remote-control to reconnect.

Details
  • Transport closes are classified as either ended_elsewhere or terminal; only the reconnectable cases keep the reconnect hint.
  • A takeover detected while restoring a session also reports ended_elsewhere, alongside the existing message about another connection taking over.
  • A status element in the UI is hidden in the claimed-elsewhere case.

ended_elsewhere

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