What's Wrong?

Claude Code injects the user's Anthropic account email into the assistant's system context via a # userEmail block; this is sensitive and should not be exposed to the model.

The model uses my personal data to sign git commits / emails / etc.

What Should Happen?

Anthropic MUST never intentionally share my personal data with everything Claude Code touches.
