idk if it's broken.

I think it's more like, "We don't want our harness to need to be able to interpret every version of our conversation format indefinitely."

i think more of a "we need to delete thinking traces off of customers devices, so our customers cant use them"

which makes anthropic on the whole a lot less trustworthy to have access to any machine

Except that those customers can access the traces for 30 days, and freely copy them at any point during that period? It's a usability issue at worst, not some anti-customer conspiracy.

[bbg2401]

It's both a usability issue and an anti-customer choice.

Sure, and if they hadn't trimmed logs someone would also be complaining that "stupid Anthropic lets logs fill your hard drive"!

Oh wait, they just complained about Codex doing this a day or so ago.
