What
Claude Code has rules that find secrets such as passwords and keys in text and hide them. This is called redaction. Each rule can now name a piece of text it needs to find before it can match anything. When that piece is missing, Claude Code skips the rule. The rule that finds a username and password written inside a web address now also requires the text to contain a web address.
Why
This makes redaction faster. It does not change what gets hidden.
