What probably matters to youSection of the release
Unclear It is not clear whether a server-side switch also controls this restore.
What
In remote sessions that run in the cloud, the folders you added to a session are now saved with the session and attached again when the worker running it restarts. This only works when CLAUDE_CODE_ADDITIONAL_DIRECTORIES_CLAUDE_MD is set in the container's environment, the variable that makes Claude Code load memory files from directories added with --add-dir.
When it is not set, adding a folder fails with an error saying that add_directory requires CLAUDE_CODE_ADDITIONAL_DIRECTORIES_CLAUDE_MD to be set. If the folders cannot be attached again at a start, they stay listed and Claude Code tries again at the next start.
Why
A remote session no longer loses folders you added to it just because its worker was restarted.
The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.
This account: off · anonymous baseline: off · compiled default in v2.1.323: 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.
