They can’t allow third party software because the third parties save the outputs of Claude responses and distill them into new models to compete with Claude.
There's https://github.com/badlogic/pi-share-hf by the creator of pi-coding-agent, to redact session data and publish on Huggingface. You can find others of the same idea for Claude Code/Codex on Github, though of varying redaction quality. Or have your LLM fork pi-share-hf to work for your preferred coding agent.
Clem Delangue (HF CEO) tweeted about this[1] and mentioned https://traces.com/ for exporting Claude sessions
Edit: It looks like HF now supports importing your agent's session directory directly[2] (I hope they're redacting PII?)
There is DataClaw https://github.com/peteromallet/dataclaw which uploads your Claude Code chats and more to HuggingFace in a single command. Nowadays there are many similar tools.
Yeah who just goes and indiscriminately vacuums up data so they can train their products they’re going to sell with no intention of giving compensation to the very entities that made their products possible?

Of course they can allow it. They choose not to. They choose to screw over all users because they are afraid of some company making a claude ripoff. It shows a lack of faith in their own engineering. It shows a lack of respect for users.
