It does this only in remote sessions, meaning runs where the environment variable `CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTE` is set. Each time it deletes one, it logs a message starting \"Removed the credential file at\".\n\nA new remotely controlled setting was added alongside this. If the server sends nothing for it, it falls back to on.\n\n**Why**\n\nRemote sessions are less likely to leave login secrets behind on the machine they ran on.\n\n- Area: Sessions\n- Names: `CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTE`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
