Claude keeps nagging about "Help improve Claude" inspite of previous decline

55•onesandofgrain•1mo ago
What is this constant nagging? I have declined countless times on various devices and it keeps nagging. I get they need more data to train on, but lord saviour if you must offer free membership then.

Comments

onesandofgrain•1mo ago
Goodness gracious
vemv•1mo ago
I have all these set:

    export CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY=1
    export CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC=1
    export DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER=1
    # reduces splash screen size:
    export IS_DEMO=1
onesandofgrain•1mo ago
I wasn't even aware that was possible. I will IMMEDIATELY do this. The mere fact this is necessary to stop their data-fiending is disgusting. You prepend it everytime you run Claude or do you slap that into an .env file?
vemv•1mo ago
These are good to append to your .bashrc or .zshrc (depending on your shell of choice) and they'll be picked up.
onesandofgrain•1mo ago
Oh, shame, I use claude across 4-5 devices, but thanks anyways.
wrsh07•1mo ago
I would strongly encourage you to create a global shared bashrc for your various devices - my dotfiles repo has tremendously improved my life as an eng who needs to discard dev boxes occasionally (virtual dev boxes)
ttoinou•1mo ago
Arent you going to be banned by using it on too many devices ?
godzillabrennus•1mo ago
I think they charge based on consumption, not devices.
onesandofgrain•1mo ago
They charge based on consumption as the comment below me stated.
ttoinou•1mo ago
Ah sorry, I was thinking about the Pro / Max plan, not API token usage
Wowfunhappy•1mo ago
The Pro and Max plans don't have a device limit either.

I frequently use Claude code in disposable virtual machines.

hexbin010•1mo ago
More generically-named env vars should not be set as an "export" in a rc file like that (IS_DEMO/DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER etc). They'll get exported to every process spawned by the shell, which could have unintended consequences.

You could instead eg:

  alias code='DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER=1 IS_DEMO=1 /usr/local/bin/code'
or write a wrapper shell script (analyse/adjust $PATH if you're going to name it the same as an existing binary/script), eg

  #!/bin/bash

  export FOO=bar

  exec /usr/local/bin/code
yearolinuxdsktp•1mo ago
You can also put these into settings.json.
mmh0000•1mo ago

  > I wasn't even aware that was possible.
That's why you should always read the manual! These aren't hidden and secret settings:

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/settings

And, if you really hate manuals, you can just ask Claude to write the settings for you =D

immibis•1mo ago
> to stop their data-fiending

Every time you run it, it uploads most of your project's code to Anthropic's server. That's just how this category of product works. If you're disgusted by a survey...

behnamoh•1mo ago
what does the last one do?
easton•1mo ago
"Added IS_DEMO environment variable to hide email and organization from the UI, useful for streaming or recording sessions"

from the changelog: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/blob/main/CHANGELO...

behnamoh•4w ago
Hmmm, they already added this which has same functionality: CLAUDE_CODE_HIDE_ACCOUNT_INFO
skaul•1mo ago
You can add these to your `~/.claude/settings.json`:

  "env": {
    "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_FEEDBACK_SURVEY": "1",
    "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC": "1",
    "DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER": "1",
    "IS_DEMO": "1"
  }
mmh0000•1mo ago
Ha! Great minds think alike! I posted the same thing 3 seconds slower =(
mmh0000•1mo ago
Just an FYI to several of the posters here.

You CAN set these as env vars in your shell, but I prefer to stick 'em in the Claude settings.json:

  $ cat ~/.claude/settings.json
  {
    "env": {
      "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_TERMINAL_TITLE": "1",
      "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC": "1"
    }
  }

This keeps your main environment from getting cluttered.
vemv•1mo ago
Tangentially related, I had created this issue which has plenty of support - people feel very strongly about it for various reasons.

https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/4034

It's really a trivial fix so I'm disappointed not to have received any input from the Anthropic folks all this time.

jmward01•1mo ago
This is also related to GH bug [1] and HN post [2]

In that I pointed out that they are sending data back that shouldn't be and is not in compliance with their stated data usage policy [3]. Specifically, message ids which have no purpose other than to link surveys to chat history and this was being sent even when disabled (at the time. I haven't dug into the code since).

Switch to Codex
viraptor•1mo ago
https://opencode.ai/ supports Claude (and basically all other models) and it's opensource. You don't have to use CC.
fragmede•1mo ago
Heads up that in most cases I bet this'll result in worse performance as you're then but getting the benefit of the Anthropic tuned system prompts that they use in Claude code, which makes for materially different performance of the agent.
dickson-ant•1mo ago
Hi, this is Dickson from the Claude Code team. If you've declined the feedback prompt, it shouldn't keep asking. I'm investigating why the decline state isn't persisting properly from Claude Code.

I would appreciate it if you could create an issue for this at https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues so we can continue troubleshooting there.

vemv•1mo ago
Hi Dickson,

while you're here, would you generously allocate a couple minutes to assess this other issue? https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/4034

It's low-hanging fruit.

cadamsdotcom•1mo ago
Hi Dickson,

Thanks for talking to this community.

Claude Code is a very serious tool - in my opinion the only one of its kind suitable as a daily driver.

Without it my startup would grind to a halt. It’s akin to a delivery business needing its fleet of delivery vans.

Every time Claude Code changes we get nervous. Will the few humans who steward this product keep us in mind? Will we be forced to invent our own workflow?

All we want is for our reliable delivery van to keep delivering.

Appreciate you for reading and keeping us in mind as you evolve the product.

tennox•2w ago
Issue exists now: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/19208
globular-toast•1mo ago
What is this post? Is HN the Claude support channel? They have a bug tracker. Use it.
andyjohnson0•1mo ago
What are you asking? Or is this just a rant?
cadamsdotcom•1mo ago
Imagine you bought a van for your business and one day you unlock it to find the interior has been repainted with rainbows.

This is really annoying!

The van still works though, so on you go.

Later that day, you look into who else sells similar vans, and find out all the other van makers will only sell you a chassis, byo wheels.
