When no machine is attached any more, the message Claude sees now adds an instruction: if the task needs that machine's files, tools or logins, Claude should say so instead of doing it where it is running.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis stops Claude from quietly carrying out a task in the wrong place, against files or tools that are not the ones on your machine, after the machine has been detached.\n\n- Area: Remote Tools\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
