[BUG] Claude Code triggers 1Password SSH prompts on local-only repositories

Preflight Checklist

• [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
• [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

Environment

• OS: macOS (Darwin 24.6.0)
• IDE: VSCodium
• Claude Code Version: 2.0.75
• Repository: Local only (no remote configured)

Description

Claude Code VSCode extension triggers 1Password SSH agent authentication prompts when opening a chat window, even for git repositories that have no remote configured.

The dialog appears 3 times consecutively:

• Message: "Allow VSCodium to use sshkey"
• Describes an SSH key configured for a completely different project
• Occurs after the Claude Code window loads
• If "Deny" is clicked, the prompt repeats 3 times

Actual Behavior

Claude Code appears to be running git commands that trigger the SSH agent, even though there's no remote to authenticate to.

Additional Context

• The prompts appear after the Claude Code window loads (not during VSCodium startup)
• Disabling GitLens has no effect
• These VSCode settings have no effect:

``json
"git.autorefresh": false,
"git.autofetch": false,
"git.autoRepositoryDetection": false
``

• The gitStatus context appears in conversations, suggesting Claude Code is running git commands on initialization

Impact

This creates unnecessary friction and security prompts for users working on local-only repositories, and inappropriately accesses SSH credentials for unrelated projects.

What Should Happen?

Claude Code should not trigger SSH authentication for:

• Local-only repositories with no remote
• Any git status checks that don't require network access

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have a global SSH config with 1Password agent:

``
Host *
IdentityAgent "~/Library/Group Containers/2BUA8C4S2C.com.1password/t/agent.sock"
``

1. Open a git repository with no remote configured:

``bash
git remote -v # Returns nothing
cat .git/config # Shows no [remote] section
``

1. Open Claude Code chat window in VSCodium

1. Observe 1Password prompt appears 3 times
