It was enabled either by a server-controlled switch or when the artifact tool was available. It is now also enabled when the artifact tool is replaced by a CCR entry. In that case Claude Code starts the scratchpad once and creates its folder.\n\nThe server switch is off unless turned on remotely, and readings for this site's account and a signed-out baseline both came back off, though not yet under this release.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe scratchpad can now be on in these sessions even when the server switch is off.\n\n- Flag `tengu_scratch`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.317; this account: off, anonymous baseline: off, compiled default: off) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Scratchpad\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
