A note in this repository, Claude/cloud-sessions/README.md, summarizing Anthropic’s Use Claude Code in the cloud documentation page. It was reviewed on 2026-09-18, when cloud sessions were a research preview for Pro, Max, and Team users and for Enterprise users with premium or Chat + Claude Code seats.1 Sections the note marks as analysis are its author’s reading, not documentation claims; this wiki keeps that label.
Takeaways
- A cloud session is an ordinary Claude Code session running on an Anthropic-managed VM that clones the repository from GitHub.1 See Cloud session.
- Network access, environment variables, and setup scripts come from a saved cloud environment.1 See Cloud environment.
- Work moves terminal → cloud with
--cloudand cloud → terminal with--teleport; the CLI cannot push a running session up.1 See Moving work between terminal and cloud. - Auto-fix watches a pull request and responds to CI failures and review comments, but cannot see merge conflicts.1 See Pull request auto-fix.
- The Claude GitHub App, not the sign-in method, is what enables auto-fix and project threads.1 See Claude GitHub App.
