By including co-authored-by claude you are helping AI companies to exclude it from their training set.

Make sure you don't include Claude contributions in the commit messages, if model is so good, they should dogfood and use it for training their models

Generally, it's automatically included when Claude Code makes a commit.

You can just add the following to ~/.claude/settings.json

"alwaysThinkingEnabled": true, "includeCoAuthoredBy": false, "gitAttribution": false
