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.

Cloud sessions check the repo before offering to sync, and say why when they cannot

Cloud Sessions Notable

Cloud sync sizes up your repo first and always tells you why it declined; bundle upload is server-gated.

What

Before asking whether to sync your checkout to a cloud session, Claude Code now measures the repository and picks between starting from a remote ref, uploading a bundle, or deferring. Every refusal now comes with a stated reason. Bundle upload itself is gated by a server flag with no built-in default, so it is off unless the server enables it; CCR_ENABLE_BUNDLE=true forces it on locally and CCR_FORCE_BUNDLE skips remote detection.

Details
  • The probe measures pack size via pack-objects --revs --stdout --thin, the byte count of changed tracked files, and a survey of untracked files.
  • Written refusal reasons include: repository has no commits yet, a merge or cherry-pick is in progress, the workspace is untrusted, the index has unmerged entries, the remote is a self-hosted pool, the host is not GitHub, the repository is too large, and the platform is unsupported.
  • A new telemetry event records the outcome, the forecast, the host, how far the checkout has diverged, and byte counts.
