  "transcript": "PSA for anyone using Claude Code: Check your recent git history and PR descriptions.\n\nIt's automatically appending a public session URL to everything you commit without telling you. (The fix: set attribution.commit: \"\" in your .claude/settings.json).\n\n\n\n--- Top Comments ---\n\n\n[1 upvotes] **TL;DR of the discussion generated automatically after 30 comments.**\n\nSo, the thread is pretty split. **The general consensus is this is an annoying default, but not the major security risk OP suggests.**\n\nThose session URLs aren't actually public; they're for Anthropic to trace malicious code back to a user's session for security investigations. You can't see someone else's chat with them.\n\nIf you want to turn this off, OP's fix is incomplete. You need to edit your `.claude/settings.json` file (either in your home directory or the project repo) with the following to kill all attribution:\n\n*   ```json\n    {\n      \"attribution\": {\n        \"sessionUrl\": false,\n        \"commit\": \"\",\n        \"pr\": \"\"\n      }\n    }\n    ```\n\nA few other points: this only happens when Claude Code itself makes the commit, not your manual ones. And believe it or not, some people actually *like* the feature for tracking their work. So, annoying? A bit. A dealbreaker? Nah.\n\n[79 upvotes] Stupid? Yes. Easy to disable? Also Yes\n\n[24 upvotes] What can a person do with a session URL?",
