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.

You can set CLAUDE_CODE_DIR_SYNC_GIT to pick a git-based engine for syncing your directory to a cloud session.

CLAUDE_CODE_DIR_SYNC_GIT
What

Setting this environment variable now decides which engine syncs your directory to a cloud session worker, and the worker logs that the switch is on when it takes effect. Without it, the previous engine selection applies unchanged.

Details
  • The engine actually chosen, and the reason when it ends up as none, are both reported in cloud-session telemetry.

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