A large new module implements "Remote Control": registering your computer as a linked device so a cloud session (a Claude Code session running remotely, referred to internally as a "cowork" session) can dispatch tool execution to your local machine instead of running it in the cloud. It includes retry and backoff behavior for when the link is busy or in a transient state, and surfaces specific refusal reasons to the user, such as "Remote Control is turned off for your organization" or "using your own computer from cloud sessions is switched off for your organization."
This lets a cloud-based session make use of tools and resources available only on your own computer. Organizations can disable this capability, in which case users attempting to link a device will see an explicit message explaining why it's blocked.
