What
When you run the remote-control command with --help or -h, Claude Code now prints help text for that command and stops. This happens before a session starts. Before, those flags were not caught at this point.
Why
Asking for help no longer risks --help being treated as input to a new session.

Confirmed since
Anthropic's documentation has since written up claude remote-control, on Let Claude coordinate ongoing work with Projects.
* **In a terminal**: run `claude remote-control` in the folder and leave it running. In a git repository, add `--spawn worktree` to give each thread there its own [worktree](/docs/en/worktrees) instead of the folder itself.claude-projects see the edit
