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.

"device bash withheld" telemetry field is always false

Under the hood
Useful1 Signal2
Telemetry

A new telemetry field about withheld device shell access always reports false on this build.

The device_bash_withheld field exists but its source is compiled to a constant false.

What

Two telemetry events now report a device_bash_withheld field, but the helper that supplies its value for the bind event is compiled down to a constant false. The feature it describes is never active on this build and the field always reports false.

Details
  • Events affected: tengu_device_bridge_started and tengu_device_bind_prepared.
Evidence

device_bash_withheld

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