Unclear It is unclear whether the report actually records a different value now, or whether the code only renamed the value it already recorded.
What
Remote Control lets you reach a Claude Code session from somewhere other than the terminal it runs in. When you switch its spawn mode, Claude Code sends a small usage report (telemetry, meaning anonymous data about how the product is used) that records the change. That report now records the mode you just switched to. Before this build it filled that field from a different value.
Why
This only affects the usage data Claude Code sends. Nothing you see or do in Remote Control is different.
