Bug Description

Technically not a bug with Claude Code, but it seems Anthropic is blocking Claude Code from accessing shared conversations on claude.ai:

● Fetch(https://claude.ai/share/afca1707-a8cd-403d-8c0b-0d97ce6be2ff)
  ⎿  Error: Request failed with status code 403

I don't know where else to report this.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. "Share" a conversation in Claude web GUI.
  2. Tell Claude Code to fetch it.

Expected Behavior

Claude Code will fetch the conversation.

Actual Behavior

The request was blocked with 403 forbidden

Same problem for the Claude.ai web GUI:

I'm unable to directly fetch the shared conversation from that URL. Unfortunately, Claude's web fetch tool cannot access Claude.ai shared conversations directly.

This is lack of fundamental interoperability.

Do it, I'm tired of making downloadable .md file to then manually give to Claude Code
