Summary
Conversation sessions are being archived automatically and repeatedly, with no user action. It keeps happening across sessions and disrupts ongoing work.
Environment
- Claude Code 2.1.69
- macOS 26.5.1 (Darwin 25.5.0)
Expected behavior
A session stays active until the user explicitly archives it.
Actual behavior
Sessions archive themselves without user input — recurring.
Ruled out (not a user config)
- No archive-related hooks or settings in
~/.claude/settings.jsonor the project.claudeconfigs. - The
ccd_session_mgmtlayer exposes anarchive_sessioncapability that appears to be invoked outside user intent.
Request
- Stop auto-archiving sessions; only archive on explicit user action.
- And/or expose a setting to disable auto-archiving.
