Unclear What Claude Code does with the entries on this list, and so what a connector-downloads entry changes for a user, is not stated.
What
Claude Code keeps a short list of entries that it treats specially. Two of them are bridge-pointer.json and .session-aliases. An entry named connector-downloads is now on that list too.
Why
Claude Code now handles anything named connector-downloads the same way it handles those two entries. A connector is an outside service that Claude Code can link to. The name points to a place for files that a connector downloads.
