Sessions on the same machine no longer share a name

Same-machine name clashes are resolved at startup, on rename and on recheck; the flag defaults on.

What

If another live session on your machine already uses the same session name, the newer session yields and takes a suffixed name instead. The check runs at startup, on rename, and again on a delayed recheck. The remote-config flag tengu_session_name_uniqueness controls it and its built-in fallback is on, so without a server value this is active.

Details
  • The yielding session logs the change under [session-name] at info level.
  • Other sessions it talks to are notified over the local cross-session messaging channel with a message telling them to use the new name.
  • Any failure during the check is non-fatal: the session keeps its original name.

tengu_session_name_uniqueness Off in both readings

The 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.

What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns off for tengu_session_name_uniqueness, read as this account. 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.
