Claude Cloud Session Context Solution

invocation02 · reddit · 2026-07-15

The author shares a DIY setup to make Claude's cloud computer genuinely usable, split into two core parts:

A "context repo" serving as the starting context for all cloud sessions, containing:
CLAUDE.md: Explains repository relationships, conventions, and workflows
.gitmodules: Pins member repositories by reference without copying code
sessions/: Logs what the agent did in each session for seamless continuity next time
skills/: Equips every cloud launch with necessary skills
A self-hosted web page that uses claude.ai/code URL parameters to automatically generate launch links for the context repo and multiple related repos, opening the composer with everything preloaded in one click.

Additional points mentioned:

Private repositories can also be loaded with full git history
Access is handled via Anthropic's GitHub integration without exposing tokens/credentials
Running sessions report back their status, allowing the page to uniformly display working/idle/completed sessions
Tasks currently need to be broken down into smaller, inspectable chunks, as long tasks consume plan quotas
Future plans include letting agents submit PRs directly to the context repo after learning, and migrating this approach to Codex cloud

The author expresses willingness to open-source this self-hosted web page.
