    Sorry folks, this is a rollout artifact, we needed a way to turn this off remotely via feature flags if it broke something, and with telemetry off you don't get those. It's already been fixed as part of v2.1.281 releasing today.

    The mod is source available here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;anthropics&#x2F;claude-code&#x2F;tree&#x2F;main&#x2F;mods&#x2F;agents-md" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;anthropics&#x2F;claude-code&#x2F;tree&#x2F;main&#x2F;mods&#x2F;age...

    Apologies again folks, this was a fully human error on my part - I should&#x27;ve found a better way to launch with a kill-switch.

      Would be interesting to know how much time you&#x2F;your team spent on that design decision

        The correct design was in the AGENTS.md but they didn&#x27;t have telemetry on
