Claude Code v2.1.236 ·

Remote settings caching watches a second file and skips redundant priming

Cached remote settings now come with a companion attestation file, and both must load cleanly.

What

The component that reads cached remote settings from disk now tracks two files rather than one, the cache itself and a companion file whose contents become an attestation string, reading the companion only after the cache and standing the whole view down if either read fails or is oversized.

Details
  • Priming is now skipped when a cache was already loaded this session, joining the existing skip reasons of ineligibility and the CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTE_SETTINGS_PATH override.
  • The prime log line now reports whether the companion attestation was present.
  • Applies only on the newer storage path; no new flag. Visible only in debug logs.
