Signing in with resumecontext auth binds that machine. Every session it records carries that machine’s identity, and every result your agent gets back carries an origin:

Why it matters

History is not proof that anything it describes exists here. A session from another machine can reference files, checkouts, datasets, running services, environment variables or credentials that are simply absent locally. So when your agent reuses a command or path from a session that is not this_machine, it is instructed to say where it came from and check the inputs exist before running it.
origin is the only evidence of which machine. Paths inside a transcript are just text that session recorded. Teammates commonly share a directory layout, and /Users/<name>/work/repo can exist on several machines or none. A familiar-looking path does not mean the work happened here.

The web app

The dashboard shows origin per session too, but a browser is not a bound machine, so your own sessions show as unknown there rather than claiming to be this_machine.
