This only happens when all of these are true:\n\n- Video thumbnails are asked for.\n\n- Claude Code runs in a remote environment that is not self-hosted.\n\n- The remote switch `tengu_purring_reef` is on.\n\nThat switch is off unless turned on remotely, and the flag server returned it as off for this site's account and for an anonymous account. The existing upload switch `tengu_deep_plum` is now only checked under the same remote, not self-hosted condition. v2.1.319 compiled it on by default.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis prepares video previews for people viewing a chat, ahead of the feature being switched on.\n\n- Flag `tengu_purring_reef`: Off in both readings (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.321; 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- Flag `tengu_deep_plum`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.321; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: on) 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: Attachments\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
