What

Claude Code sends usage data (telemetry) about how it is used, and it cleans that data before it is sent. The cleaning step now handles two more fields:

  • tool_use_id, an identifier for a single tool call. A tool call is one action Claude takes, such as reading a file.
  • transport, which is kept only if it is bridge or native. Any other value is recorded as other.
Why

This shows which extra details can now appear in usage data. The connection type is limited to a few fixed values, so nothing unexpected passes through that field.

How sure we are
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtIt is not clear which usage events carry these fields or what `bridge` and `native` refer to.
