chore: v2.8.82 — weekly database backups, no error reports from server Claude panes

Settings → Data → Database backup takes "How often" (every day, 2, 3 days,
every week, 2 weeks, 30 days): AGENTHUB_BACKUP_EVERY (1–30, default 1),
due once the newest backup in the folder is that many calendar days old.

Server mode: every claude pane gets DISABLE_ERROR_REPORTING=1 — a crash
report can carry a user's paths and Linux account — while telemetry and
feature flags stay on, since turning those off removes flag-gated features
(artifact comments, synced skills/plugins, advisor, MCP tasks). Local mode
is unchanged; the dashboard's own env setting wins.

Once a day, at `hour` (0–23, the server's local time, default 2), the database is copied to `dir` as `agenthub-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.db`: `VACUUM INTO` on a read-only connection in a worker thread, so the copy is a consistent snapshot (writes from another dashboard on the same database never restart it), compacted, and the event loop keeps serving while it runs (≈30 s for a 1.25 GB database). It is written as `<name>.partial` and renamed when complete. Beyond `keep` (1–365, default 7) the oldest are deleted — only regular files matching that exact name; nothing else in the folder, and no symlink, is ever touched.

+Settings → Data → **Database backup** (`server/lib/db-backup.js`). Every `every` days (1–30, default 1 = daily, 7 = weekly — due once the newest backup in `dir` is that many calendar days old), at `hour` (0–23, the server's local time, default 2), the database is copied to `dir` as `agenthub-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.db`: `VACUUM INTO` on a read-only connection in a worker thread, so the copy is a consistent snapshot (writes from another dashboard on the same database never restart it), compacted, and the event loop keeps serving while it runs (≈30 s for a 1.25 GB database). It is written as `<name>.partial` and renamed when complete. Beyond `keep` (1–365, default 7) the oldest are deleted — only regular files matching that exact name; nothing else in the folder, and no symlink, is ever touched. A day missed while the server was down runs at the next start; a failed run is retried the next day or by **Back up now**, never every minute. The three values persist to the settings file as `AGENTHUB_BACKUP_DIR` / `AGENTHUB_BACKUP_HOUR` / `AGENTHUB_BACKUP_KEEP`; one the environment set is `env_owned` (`409 EENVOWNED`).

The scheduler beat is `DASHBOARD_BACKUP_TICK_MS` (default 60000, `0` = off).
 
 Restoring is manual, on purpose: `agenthub stop`, delete `dashboard.db-wal` and `dashboard.db-shm`, copy a backup over `dashboard.db` (its path is on Settings → System), `agenthub start`.

+Measured with a capture server and Claude Code 2.1.319 (the build members
+run): every `/v1/messages` call carries `metadata.user_id` =
+`{"device_id": <random 64-hex, made at the config dir's first run, fixed>,
+"account_uuid": "", "session_id"}`; the headers carry only the CLI/Node
+versions, `Linux`/`x64` and the session id — no host name, account or path;
+the system prompt carries `Primary working directory: <path>`, `Platform` and
+`OS Version`. Outside the base URL Claude Code also connected to
+`api.anthropic.com` itself (telemetry with the device id, distro, kernel,
+terminal — no host name or path — queued on disk when it fails);
+`CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC=1` stopped all of it.
+
+So a laptop session always tells Anthropic the laptop's working path, OS and
+device id (the prompt has to keep the real path or the agent breaks), and the
+hub stored the machine's host name (device name), its last IP, each session's
+whole path and transcripts full of `/home/<account>/…`. Decided (user,

+| No address: `devices.last_ip` is never written (`lastIp` always null) | `devices.js` |
+| No host name: a client enrolls under the name the user gives, else none (hub: `device`; the UI shows `device #<id>`) | `remote-client.js` `login` |
+| No path: a session registers its folder's last segment; the hub cuts an older client's full path the same way | `remote-client.js`, `remote-sessions.js` `cleanCwd` |
+| Transcripts: before upload, the folders above the project and the home become `~` (also as Claude's `-home-<account>-…` folder names), the host name `device`, the account in `ls -l` columns `user` | `server/lib/path-privacy.js`, `remote-client.js` `redactLine` |
