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.

Sending files and messages to other sessions fails early on unreachable targets

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal2
Session Messaging

Sending a file or message to an unreachable session is denied while asking permission, not silently at send time.

What

SendFile and SendMessage now work out which session you are aiming at while asking for permission, rather than at send time, and deny outright when the target is a Remote Control session that a cloud session cannot reach. If working out the target throws, you get an ask that says so instead of the send quietly proceeding.

Details
  • The resolved target is cached against the tool call, so the permission answer and the send agree.
  • When peer machines are kept separate, the SendFile prompt now always includes the warning that file contents travel via Anthropic's servers to another machine.
Evidence

If the recipient is a Remote Control or cloud session, the file contents travel via Anthropic's servers to another machine.

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