- Around line 31-33: Update the primary setup command in the Claude capture
documentation to download and verify a pinned installer release using its
checksum rather than executing mutable main content. Replace the `--key` argv
credential flow with a non-argv secret input mechanism, while preserving the
existing `--claude-enabled` setup behavior.
- Line 18: Update the documentation statement near the failed-turn and
tool-failure description to qualify Claude Code reasoning capture by the
supported version or explicitly distinguish excluded reasoning-content from any
reasoning metadata retained in local transcripts. Avoid the current absolute
claim that Claude Code reasoning text is never captured.

| Each Claude Code session becomes an AgentEye [session](/agenteye/sessions). Its user and assistant turns, tool calls and results, token usage and context fill, hook runs, compaction boundaries, and failures become the matching [events](/agenteye/event-stream). | ||

| This includes failed turns, API errors, and tool failures, so sessions remain useful when you are investigating what went wrong. Claude Code's reasoning text is not captured because its local transcripts do not contain that content. |

Claude Code release notes reasoning-effort metadata session transcripts feed.xml anthropics/claude-code
💡 Result:
As of July 30, 2026, there is no official implementation or release note confirming that "reasoning-effort" metadata has been added to the status line JSON or session transcripts in Claude Code. Multiple community members have filed feature requests (e.g., issues #13158, #37701, #38637, #50060) on the official anthropics/claude-code GitHub repository explicitly asking for the current reasoning effort level (e.g., low, medium, high) to be exposed in the status line stdin JSON. Users report that this metadata is currently missing from the status line hook, making it difficult to display real-time, mid-session changes made via the /effort command or other settings [1][2][3][4][5]. Currently, while Claude Code internally tracks reasoning effort, it is not consistently exposed in an accessible, programmatic way for external status line scripts or within standard transcript files [1][2][4]. Users relying on workarounds, such as parsing local configuration files (like settings.json) or attempting to regex-match transcript output, find these methods fragile because they do not reliably reflect dynamic, in-session state changes [2][3][4]. You can monitor the official GitHub repository for updates and progress on these feature requests [1][4]. The official documentation, including the changelog, remains the primary source for confirming when such metadata is officially supported [6][7].

💡 Result:
Reasoning effort in Claude Code refers to the configurable "thinking" budget assigned to the model during complex tasks, which directly impacts response latency, cost, and depth of reasoning [1]. Recent updates to Claude Code have integrated reasoning effort more deeply into the system: 1. Session Transcripts: Reasoning effort levels are now recorded on each assistant message within session transcripts [2][3]. This change ensures that the effort applied to specific turns is documented, which is particularly useful for tracking model behavior and debugging [4]. 2. Status Line Integration: The statusLine stdin JSON payload now includes an effort.level field [5]. This allows custom status line scripts to display the active reasoning effort level in real-time, including changes made mid-session via the /effort command [1][5]. 3. Configuration and Precedence: Reasoning effort can be set or overridden through multiple layers. While documentation indicates a precedence of environment variables > skill/subagent frontmatter > session settings > model defaults, users have noted discrepancies where certain overrides (such as skill-specific frontmatter) may not always take effect at runtime [6][7]. 4. Feed Updates: Technical changes related to these features are tracked in the project's feed (feed.xml) and changelog, which document updates such as the inclusion of reasoning effort in status line payloads and transcript records [2][3]. Important limitations identified by users include the failure of the --resume command to persist the session's effort level, which can lead to unexpected behavior and prompt cache invalidation [4], as well as issues where environment-forced effort levels may bypass model capability checks and cause errors with subagents that do not support reasoning parameters [8].

Make the reasoning-data claim version-specific.
Claude Code release notes document that reasoning effort is recorded in session transcripts, so “Claude Code’s reasoning text is not captured” is absolute enough that users may infer transcripts remain private from Claude’s own reasoning data. Clarify that the collector excludes Claude reasoning-content while noting any reasoning metadata that may still remain, or tie the statement to the supported Claude Code version.

Avoid an unpinned installer and API key in argv.
This primary setup path executes mutable main content via curl | sh, while --key <YOUR_API_KEY> exposes the credential through shell history and process arguments. Use a pinned release/checksum and a non-argv secret input path before publishing this command.

Review summary
Changes requested — the new setup instructions introduce an unsafe install and credential-handling pattern. The page otherwise reads clearly: device-login guidance is precise, navigation and cross-links are wired correctly, and the capture scope/privacy boundary is useful.

Blocking — unsafe installer and exposed API key. This executes mutable main content immediately and passes the events:add key as a command-line argument, where it can be exposed to other local processes or shell history. Publish a version-pinned installer/binary with an integrity check, and use a non-argv secret input (for example, a protected environment variable or stdin) before making this the recommended setup path.
