What

Remote Control lets you reach a Claude Code session on this computer from elsewhere. Before, it re-registered this computer only after the server rejected a connection, and stopped after a fixed number of tries. Now:

  • It renews the computer's credential shortly before it expires, showing a message that it is doing so, and retries with randomized waits if renewal fails.
  • Re-registering after a rejected connection is capped per hour and can report itself as paused.
  • A new error message covers the server rejecting registration.
  • When Remote Control gives up, the computer's registration can be kept on shutdown.
Why

This affects how long a computer stays connected through Remote Control without you having to sign in again.

The writer flagged doubtRenewal depends on an expiry time from the server, and what sets it is not known.
