[DOCS] `/feedback` docs omit recent-session attachment options for cross-session issues
Documentation Type
Missing documentation (feature not documented)

Section/Topic
/feedback command entry and related guidance about what session data the command can attach
Current Documentation
The docs currently say:
When something is wrong./rewindrolls code and conversation back to a checkpoint./doctorand/debugdiagnose install and runtime issues, and/feedbackreports a bug with session context attached.
|/feedback [report]| Submit feedback about Claude Code. Alias:/bug|
When users run the /feedback command, a copy of their full conversation history including code is sent to Anthropic. The data is encrypted in transit via TLS. Optionally, a GitHub issue is created in the public repository.
Run /feedback inside Claude Code to send the transcript and a description to Anthropic. The command also offers to open a prefilled GitHub issue.
What's Wrong or Missing?
The v2.1.141 release adds /feedback support for issues that span more than the current session by letting users include recent sessions from the last 24 hours or 7 days.
The current docs do not explain that behavior anywhere. They only describe /feedback in terms of the current session's context, transcript, or conversation history.
That leaves two gaps:
A. Missing feature guidance
Users are not told that /feedback can include recent sessions when a problem spans multiple sessions, or that the available ranges are the last 24 hours and last 7 days.
B. Missing data-sharing detail
The data-usage and error-reporting docs do not clarify that /feedback may now offer multi-session transcript attachment, so users cannot tell from the docs what extra session history may be shared when they choose that option.
Suggested Improvement
Update the /feedback documentation to describe the multi-session flow introduced in v2.1.141.
Minimum fix:
- In the
/feedbackcommand reference, explain that Claude Code can offer recent-session attachment when the issue spans more than the current session. - List the available scopes: current session only, recent sessions from the last 24 hours, and recent sessions from the last 7 days.
- In the data-usage and error-reporting pages, clarify what transcript/session data is attached for each choice so the privacy implications are explicit.
Suggested wording for the command docs:
If the issue spans more than the current session, /feedback can also include recent sessions. Claude Code may offer attachments from the last 24 hours or the last 7 days so you can report regressions that reproduce across resumed or separate sessions.
Impact
Medium - Makes feature difficult to understand
