What's Wrong?

The sign-out didn't clear the persisted session data — the app is still reusing env_01Lnh4Ea92zuP2PBYG7MpXEC because that ID is stored in the claude-code-sessions folder, not the token cache.

But looking more carefully, the environment IS registering successfully now (the server accepts it at 06:56:33). The failure is specifically on "Session creation failed" when you try to enable Remote Control — this is a separate API call for the remote control feature itself.

This looks like a server-side issue with the remote control credentials endpoint, not something fixable locally. The recommended path is to report it to Anthropic:

https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues

Include these key log lines:

[remote-control] bridge_state: failed — Remote credentials fetch failed — see debug log
[remote-control] bridge_state: failed — Session creation failed — see debug log
And the app version: 1.20186.9 (from the startup log).

In the meantime — is there a specific task you need Remote Control for? The computer-use MCP tools available in this session (mcp__computer-use__*) provide the same screen control capability and are working fine.

What Should Happen?

Remote control should be enabled
