Source Intelligence

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 v2.1.234

Your email address in the system prompt now comes with handling rules

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal4
System Prompt

Claude is now told never to send your email address to unrelated services, with no way to turn it off.

What

The block that tells Claude your email address no longer just states it. It now instructs Claude never to send that address to an unrelated service, whether in a request header, a URL, or a payload, unless you explicitly ask. This applies whenever an email address is known, with no setting to turn it off.

Evidence

Never send it to an unrelated service, such as in a request header, URL, or payload, unless the user explicitly asks.

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