Developer finds Claude Code skips AGENTS.md when telemetry is disabled

A developer testing Claude Code found that it silently skipped project instructions in AGENTS.md when telemetry or other nonessential traffic was disabled. The developer traced the behavior to a remote feature flag controlling the file loader and reproduced it with a test file containing a distinctive word. The finding affects teams that rely on AGENTS.md to share instructions across coding agents: Claude Code can answer without ever reading that file. In the developer's tests, an AGENTS.md import placed in CLAUDE.md loaded the instructions while nonessential traffic remained disabled.
