Claude Code now has two messages for when this is switched off because the versions do not fit:\n\n- Claude on this computer is too old for the cloud session. The message asks you to update the Claude app or Claude Code and then open the session again.\n\n- The cloud session's Claude Code is too old for this computer. The message asks you to start a new session.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe messages show that Claude Code checks whether the versions fit before it lets a cloud session use tools on your computer, and they tell you which side needs updating.\n\n- Area: Sessions\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
