What
When a cloud session starts, it checks out a version of your code. The usage data Claude Code records about that step now includes more details, including how long it took, how many tries it needed, whether GitHub was involved, whether a search failed, and what the checkout was created from.
Why
This is internal usage data only. It changes nothing you do, and shows the cloud checkout step is being measured more closely.
