What Hacker News says?
I'm referring to this signing bit: https://alex000kim.com/posts/2026-03-31-claude-code-source-l... Ah, it seems that Bun itself signs the code. I don't understand how this can't be spoofed.

HN discussionGood explanation here https://alex000kim.com/posts/2026-03-31-claude-code-source-l... its a server side flag set by the distillation detection, shouldn't affect most user's sessions. I don't think?
