Claude Code now adds `\/mnt\/wslg\/distro` to a list of mount points when a platform check passes. That check appears to detect WSL, which lets you run Linux on Windows.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis affects how Claude Code handles paths for people using WSL.\n\n- Area: Windows\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
