What
Diskless is a launch option for running Claude Code without writing to disk. When it is set, Claude Code's log writer now behaves differently:

- It discards any log text still waiting to be saved when Claude Code exits, instead of writing it out.
Why
A diskless launch now actually leaves no log files behind.
