[DOCS] Remote Control docs missing /exit session archiving behavior

Documentation Type

Missing documentation (feature not documented)

Section/Topic

Session lifecycle and cleanup behavior for Remote Control sessions

Current Documentation

The Remote Control docs cover how to start sessions, connect from other devices, security model, and troubleshooting. No mention of /exit behavior or session archiving.

The commands reference documents /exit only as:

"Exit the CLI. Alias: /quit"

The web docs (claude-code-on-the-web) describe manual archiving via sidebar:

"You can archive sessions to keep your session list organized. Archived sessions are hidden from the default session list but can be viewed by filtering for archived sessions. To archive a session, hover over the session in the sidebar and click the archive icon."

No documentation explains that /exit in a Remote Control session archives it automatically.

What's Wrong or Missing?

Changelog v2.1.81 fixed "Remote Control /exit not reliably archiving the session." This reveals that /exit is expected to automatically archive the Remote Control session — a behavior that is not documented anywhere.

Users ending Remote Control sessions with /exit have no documentation telling them that this archives the session in the session list on claude.ai/code, nor that this is part of the expected cleanup flow.

Suggested Improvement

A. Add cleanup behavior to remote-control.md

Add a "Ending a Remote Control session" or "Session lifecycle" subsection:

When you run /exit in an active Remote Control session, Claude Code archives the session automatically. Archived sessions are hidden from the default session list on claude.ai/code but can be viewed by filtering for archived sessions.

B. Update /exit command description

Expand the /exit entry in the commands reference to note the Remote Control archiving behavior.

Impact

Medium - Makes feature difficult to understand
