README

Claude Private Edition

A patched build of Claude Code CLI (v2.1.88) with **all telemetry, analytics, and phone-home behavior removed**.

One binary. No telemetry. Drop-in replacement.

Install

Download `claude-private-2.1.88.run` from [Releases](../../releases), then:

chmod +x claude-private-2.1.88.run
./claude-private-2.1.88.run

Pass `--prefix /custom/path` to install somewhere other than `~/.local/bin/`.

The binary is self-contained (Bun executable). No dependencies. Runs on any **Linux x86_64** system.

Usage

claude-private                          # interactive session
claude-private -p "explain this code"   # non-interactive

All standard `claude` flags work (`-p`, `--model`, `--allowedTools`, `--add-dir`, etc.).

Using with alternative backends

Claude Code speaks the **Anthropic Messages API** (`POST /v1/messages`). If your backend speaks a different protocol (OpenAI, vLLM, Ollama, etc.), use [claude-code-router](https://github.com/musistudio/claude-code-router) to translate, then point at it:

ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3456 claude-private

What Was Removed

The stock Claude Code CLI contains 17+ phone-home mechanisms, many firing on background timers even when you're idle:

Mechanism	How often it fires	Destination
Datadog event logging	Every 15 seconds	`http-intake.logs.us5.datadoghq.com`
1st-party event logging	Batched periodic	`api.anthropic.com/api/event_logging/batch`
BigQuery metrics export	Every 5 minutes	`api.anthropic.com/api/claude_code/metrics`
GrowthBook feature flags	Periodic refresh	GrowthBook remote eval
Remote managed settings	Every 1 hour	`api.anthropic.com/api/claude_code/managed_settings`
Policy limits polling	Every 1 hour	`api.anthropic.com/api/claude_code/policy_limits`
User settings sync	Background	`api.anthropic.com/api/claude_code/user_settings`
Metrics opt-out
