I think there's some misunderstanding...

What's literally stopping me is

  su: user claude does not exist or the user entry does not contain all the required fields

Clearly you're not asking that...

But if your question is more "what's stopping you from creating a user named claude, installing claude to that user account, and writing a program so that user godelski can message user claude and watch all of user claude's actions, and all that jazz" then... well... technically nothing.

But if that's your question, then I don't understand what you thought my comment said.

Yeah, that is what I meant. I mean, it's kind of the system administrator's/user's responsibility to run processes in whatever user context they want. I don't wonder why, like, nginx doesn't forcefully switch itself to an nginx user. Obviously if I want nginx to run in some non-privileged context (which I do), then I (or my distro, or my container runtime, or whatever) am responsible for running nginx that way.

Similarly, it's not really claude-code's job to "come with" a claude user. If you want claude code to run as a low-privilege user, then you can already run it as a low-privilege user. The OS has been providing that facility for decades.
