In that mode Claude Code skips:\n\n- reading and writing its cached copy of organisation memory\n\n- the project's local settings folder\n\n- some folder creation and folder listing\n\n**Why**\n\nThis points to a kind of session that runs without saving anything to disk.\n\n- Area: Diskless Sessions\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
