What
On some connections the agent list now hides working directories, drops your own session line unless a human named it, and appends a note telling you to run /rename on that session's own machine to give it an addressable name.
Details
- The renderer takes a new option, off by default, that turns this withholding on.
- Which connections get it is decided by a per-session check on the calling side that this build does not make legible.
Evidence
(session names and directories not chosen by a human are withheld on this connection \u2014 /rename a session on its own machine to give it an addressable name here)
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.

The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
