You can already turn off "Co-Authored-By" via Claude Code config. This is what their docs show:
~/.claude/settings.json
{
"attribution": {
"commit": "",
"pr": ""
},
The rest of the prompt is pretty clear that it's talking about internal use.Claude Code users aren't the ones worried about leaking "internal model codenames" nor "unreleased model opus-4-8" nor Slack channel names. Though, nobody would want that crap in their generated docs/code anyways.
Seems like a nothingburger, and everyone seems to be fantasizing about "undercover mode" rather than engaging with the details.
