Scheduled tasks: run sessions pile up in Recents and sync across devices, with no automatable cleanup

Environment: Claude Code desktop app on macOS (CLI 2.1.x, current as of 2026-07-31), session mirroring enabled.

Problem

Every scheduled-task run creates a session. With mirroring on, each run session appears in Recents on every device. A task on a twice-hourly cron produces 30+ such sessions per day; there is no way to prevent them being surfaced, and no automatable way to clean them up. Users of frequent routines end up with a session list dominated by run artifacts.

Workarounds attempted, all blocked (each verified on a live machine)

1. Archiving from within the scheduled run (instructing the task to archive its own prior runs, or itself): the archive tool raises "This tool requires explicit approval regardless of permission mode" on every call in scheduled contexts - for the current session and for others - so an unattended run just stalls on a prompt.
2. Archiving from an interactive session: works, but prompts for confirmation on every single call even with a permissions.allow rule for the tool. Clearing a day of run sessions is 30+ manual clicks.
3. Editing isArchived in the session store files directly: ignored while the app is running; session state appears to live in the daemon's memory.
4. Per-task or per-session opt-out of mirroring: none found; upload behavior appears to be a single global setting.

Requests (any one of these would resolve it)

• A per-scheduled-task option to keep run sessions out of Recents / mirroring (they are operational artifacts, not user work).
• Opt-in auto-archive of a scheduled task's completed run sessions.
• Let permissions.allow rules actually cover the archive tool (or provide a bulk-archive affordance) so cleanup can be automated or done in one action.

Reproduction

1. Create a scheduled task with any cron (e.g. 2,32 * * * *) and a trivial prompt.
2. Let it run for a day with mirroring on.
3. Observe Recents on any synced device; attempt each workaround above.
