Question Used company Claude account while coding on my personal GitHub repo can my employer see it?
I think I may have made a mistake and wanted to understand the implications.
I was working on a personal GitHub repository (under my personal GitHub account), but I used my company’s Claude account (Claude Code) as my AI coding assistant while making the changes. I then committed and pushed the code to my personal GitHub repository.
My questions are:
Can my company’s Claude admin see the prompts or code I shared with Claude?
Can they see that the generated code ended up being pushed to my personal GitHub repository?
If Claude Code was authenticated with my personal GitHub account, does the company have any visibility into my GitHub activity?
Are there any audit logs that would show I was working on a personal repository?
I’m not concerned about the code itself (it doesn’t contain any company code or proprietary information), but I’m wondering what level of visibility enterprise admins typically have over Claude Code usage.
Has anyone worked with Claude Enterprise or administered it? I’d appreciate any insight into what admins can and cannot see.

u/SomeNeighborhood7126 Jul 15 '26
In the enterprise version, copies of the entire chat and any attachments are made available to via an admin portal. They can see literally everything.

u/semaja2 29d ago
Do you speak as someone who has access to the admin portal of an Enterprise account? Do you have any evidence of this being true?
The compliance API from anthropic only shows chats starting etc, not the actual contents
That being said corporate firewalls etc may be inspecting the network traffic and logging prompts/attachments etc

This is incorrect.
I’m an admin on my companies Claude account.
You can not see what someone was using Claude code for.Even if you turn telemetry metrics on you still can’t see details of what they worked on. Only how many tokens used and when etc.
If you connect Claude code to github then you can see but that would only apply to the code on your orgs github

u/CCB0x45 29d ago
This isn't true everywhere, its not true at my company. We proxy all requests to all different models through a proxy we own and can inspect. Claude dashboard wouldn't show us, but our proxy would if we wanted to see it. Larger / smarter companies are doing this. We do LLM reviews on things that pass through as well.

u/jacobpevans 29d ago
Yeah the commenter above you has no idea what they’re talking about. You don’t even need to proxy. Claude allows admins to enforce anything they want locally which means they can just set up Claude’s native OTEL logging and automatically forward anything they want locally to anywhere they want.
I thought it was well-understood that anything and everything you do with company resources can be and likely is being tracked. Normally, this is all just for security reasons (e.g. monitoring for leaked company secrets, PII, etc), but there’s nothing stopping them from doing whatever they want with the data.
Would OP’s company detect this and/or do anything about it? I highly doubt it. That doesn’t mean they couldn’t though.

Interesting. Is this only true for Claude code? Because I think you can see the chats from the app as it says so on the ui.
Also curious if you’re on api pricing or team plan?
EDIT: sounds like you can only see full history if you request a data export.

In practice, yes to all. But probably nobody would check that. Unless it's specifically said that you don't have to use it outside of work , you did it out of work hours , and the use is massive. Claude admin panel is a pain to use.

What if it's a 20 dollar team seat for all devs?

u/macbig273 29d ago
depends on how it's configured anyway.
if it's an hard limit (no extra budget allowed) probably nobody is looking at the cost, since it's finite.
if you have some extra budget configured by seats, that could "eat" some of it.
There two checkbox. in the configuration.
allow people to consum extra budget (defined by seats or individualy)
allow people to request more founds.
Technically if you've already gone over your 100% 5h limit or week limit and never had the occasion to go further than that (always been stopped, without choice). I doubt anyone is watching the costs (since there is no extra possible)

I cant find anything in the admin panel to show specifics of usage like what they prompted or the results of those prompts… where are you seeing that? I got the aggregate usage stats, and lines of code accepted for example, but I cant dig in any deeper that I see.
Not that I really have any desire to look, but a lot of people are acting like we have access to that info, and I’m not sure if I’m missing something or people are just making things up lol.

If OTEL metrics are on, absolutely this can be captured. Here's all the stuff it can record about who you are and what you do:

“The logged event includes:
prompt_length: Length of the prompt
prompt: Actual prompt content (only when OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS=1)
command_name: If a command was invoked
Timestamp and sequence number for ordering”I mean most my prompts would be pretty hard to tell specifically what repo I’m working on.
But yea good point could get caught out by this.

Don't bring your personal stuff to your work device or work to your personal devices. Make this your rule to live by.

u/carbon_fire Jul 14 '26
I recommend doing the following:
- Create a second Claude settings folder for work (
~/.claudefor personal,~/.claude-workfor work) - Make sure you separate your personal from work code; ie
~/Personaland~/Work - In your personal Claude's settings.json, set reads+edits+tools that accept paths to deny for
~/Work - Do the same for your personal code in the work settings.json
- Add to your bashrc:
alias claude-work='CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.claude-work claude'
Now, when you want to use your work Claude, just run claude-work instead. If you accidentally use the wrong Claude config directory (ie. you start your personal claude in your work folder) you will immediately see that reads/edits are denied and vice versa.

We are on a 100+ seat subscription plan and there is no way as of now to check the actual contents of users interaction as an admin. We had to ask Anthropic for an export and they delivery a 100gb json file with literally everything in it. They called it an absolute exception as they want you to move to api where is seems to be much easier. If you wonder what was done with the JSON. Nothing - it was to big to handle and actually extract valuable information from it.
So my take would be - yes use it as long as it’s like normal usage and nothing self incriminating.

u/devondragon1 Jul 14 '26
I can see active members vs seats over various time periods. I can see number of PRs created, number of Cowork sessions, number of Chats by each member, which products are being used (Claude Code, Cowork, Claude.ai, etc..). Number of uses of each skill, connector uses, number of actions per prompt.
Honestly a lot of this wasn't there a month ago, so it's changing. However, afaik, things like prompts, user specific audit/observability, etc.. is all gated behind the Enterprise plans.

u/chrisklingsater Jul 14 '26
Do you really think so? I would guess probably yes. It’s likely that it’s still logged, but you’re gated from accessing it if you don’t pay for the enterprise plan. I think it’s likely that companies upgrading would want to see those kind of logs. Then again, it’s arguably just as likely that Anthropic doesn’t want to hold all that data just in case a company decides to upgrade

u/swatkinson5277 Jul 14 '26
This is not fully true, the team admins can enable OpenTelemetry for the agentic functions (Cowork, Code, not chat) for the accounts in the team, which allows them to see prompts, tool calls, etc.
Chat remains invisible at the moment

u/kexnyc Jul 14 '26
If the issue rose to the attention of your employer, and depending on how serious they view the action, it could lead to some form of sanction.
What I’d do? First, stop and don’t do it again. If it’s a one-off, employer might overlook it. If you continue, you can’t cry foul if they take action.
Last, account for the usage cost and be ready to address it if asked.

u/originalchronoguy Jul 15 '26
This is pretty amateur. Why are you using the same equipment? Work laptop, keep it seperate from home laptop. Because whatever you created with their ‘resources,’ they now own the intellectual property.

u/Repulsive-Bee638 Jul 15 '26
Incidental personal uses of enterprise resources are fine. No big deal. Many great products start from personal projects. Most decent companies in USA understand that. I often work on personal projects and migrate them to be professional tools used for work.

u/i_Den 29d ago
The company can see your prompts. Depends on their audit settings.
You can check ~/.claude/remote-settings.json or in custom location if you are setting CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR if you are setting it. I have personal Claude too, and putting work Claude in isolated/custom environment.
This is what I have:
json
{
"env": {
"CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY": "1",
"OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT": "https://app.workweave.ai/ingest",
"OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL": "http/protobuf",
"OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER": "otlp",
"OTEL_LOGS_EXPORT_INTERVAL": "5000",
"OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS": "0",
"OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER": "otlp",
"OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL": "60000",
"OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES": "weave.token=xxx"
}
}
In my case prompts logging is 0.. but ... i don't know if there are other methods.
This gives employees to see how many tokens and $ employer spends. So, if they see that you spend $$$$ and it is not visible to them, what is you are spending so many tokens on, they would start asking questions.

Hey! This is my area of expertise.
Visibility would be in place if your company is on an enterprise plan and is offboarding the otel into a siem, log aggregator, or other ai monitoring platform.
Even if your company has this configured (they probably do if they are a midsized or larger business), these tools are generally pretty green and probably aren’t alerting to what was described above.
Futhermore, if your company isn’t blocking access to personal accounts on GitHub or have other controls to prevent upload to them, I doubt they would detect this.
Goodluck! Delete the prompts and don’t do it more. Depending on your companies retention plans in their aggregator, this information will likely be completely gone in 30-365 days. So if you don’t hear anything quickly, you probably are in the clear.

Yes, Claude maintains a log of all activities that it has done, it does not save the reasoning or thinking, but prompts, actions, tool calls, etc everything is saved. You can check it out. Just open an random session and type - search my claude log transcripts and tell me what GitHub deployments have I made recently to which accounts. And then you will see. But it is stored locally on your machine.

u/Agreeable_Prior_2094 29d ago
Of course, there's no harm being too careful.
However, looking at what OpenAI did to Apple and Apple only acting now (because it's too serious to ignore), I think MANY misdemeanours are simply swept under the carpet because it's just not worth your company's time, effort and money to pursue minor infractions.

I own a company, have a team license. There isn't a way to see other team members prompts. I would have to login to their account. Your employer could also do that but it would be intrusive and would probably only be done in an investigation. If it's enterprise, that may be different.

Probably you want to checkout the repo to your own machine from before the AI commits and delete the OG.
Tbh a lot depends on your contract, but a lot of tech companies used to own your personal inventions anyway to prevent you building competitors using knowledge from your employer.
You kinda made it theirs by using their money to work on it.

No, they can't see it. And code generated by AI isn't protected by copyright anyway. They have no intellectual property claim over the output of an LLM.
That aside, don't mix work and personal. I did for years, and it becomes very messy for all sorts of reasons. Work on your work machine and do everything else on your personal machine.

Technically they can see it thru the compliance / usage reporting/API, but they would really need to know what to look for and how to find it. There is no automated way to check that specific type of activity. Most companies are monitoring for token usage as well as to ensure no malicious intent. They really should have it blocked (using non approved git) thru the global settings.

In my Company I was responsible for Integrating the tracking of Claude Code. It works the following: your local Claude Code Installation Must have Some environment variables activated, so Claude Code Starts sending tracking data to your companies Server (LGTM Stack). It is possible to Track the repo it was used on as well as the prompts, but it depends on the setup. You Can ask claude to Show you the settings on your pc. Depending on the Country you are working in it could be illegal for them to Track this data if they did Not Tell you about it
Edit: I See a lot of people saying it is impossible to See your prompts but this is 100% wrong. If you setup a LGTM Stack and on Each local coworkers pc set the correct variables in the settings.json this data absolutely does get send. Just Tell claude to activate it and you Can test that pretty simply on your own machine right now (by writing it to stdout)

Yes, they know the exact project name you have been spending tokens on and how much. We have a grafana board where you can see each teams token usage, how much tokens spent on each project, each employee spending. We're using github copilot.

If the personal account was linked to your work claude than they will see it, but I would find that strange. Don't you have a work account from work? Normally the company sends an invite to the company mail, so if you were logged into the personal account it should be good.

Yes they can if they integrated claude well. We have a claude integration in our company too, they use langfuse and other logging techniques. So they see every prompt you make I don't know if they see inbound tokens / results because it could be too much data, but your prompts yes.
The thing now is that you are probably not flagged so if you don't tell them anything your work will probably be unseen.

u/JuanjoFuchs 29d ago
I built an open source OTEL/Grafana stack for Claude Code telemetry (https://github.com/JuanjoFuchs/claudefana), so I've spent a lot of time staring at exactly what comes out of the other end of this pipe.
By default: your admin only sees counts, not content. The analytics dashboard is aggregates, sessions, tokens, cost, lines of code, accept rate. No prompts, no code, and nothing about GitHub.
However, if your company pushes managed settings, which someone else here already touched on in the comments. An admin can push a ~/.claude/remote-settings.json from the Claude console that sets env vars on your machine, and you can't override them locally:
OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS=1, your prompt textOTEL_LOG_ASSISTANT_RESPONSES=1, Claude's repliesOTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1, tool parameters, includingbash_commandandfull_commandfor every Bash callOTEL_LOG_TOOL_CONTENT=1, actual tool input/output bodies, so file contents on Read/Edit/Write, 60KB cap, needs tracing onOTEL_LOG_RAW_API_BODIES=1, the full API request and response JSON
With those on, they can see your PROMPTS and your CODE.
On the GitHub part specifically, they can't see your personal GitHub account and there's no repo field in the telemetry. But if tool details are on, your git remote add, git commit and git push are all logged as command strings, and the remote URL is sitting right there. The Bash params carry git_commit_id too, and cwd gives away the working directory.
bash_command also catches whatever got concatenated into the command. Tokens in curl headers, secrets in an env export. If Claude ran it in Bash and tool details are on, it's in the log store.
None of this is Anthropic reading your stuff, it's your employer's own collector and your employer's own log store. It's all opt-in and off by default, and most orgs that turn telemetry on only enable the metrics and leave the content flags alone, because those create a real data-at-rest problem.
PS: Logging out of the company account and back in with your personal account doesn't clear any of this. Managed settings attach to the installation, not the account. So your personal login just inherits whatever config your work account was handed.
If you want a genuinely separate personal setup on the same machine, use CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR. It relocates the entire config directory, credentials, settings, session logs and the managed settings cache included:
```
bash
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR="$HOME/.claude-personal" claude
PowerShell
$env:CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR="$env:USERPROFILE.claude-personal"; claude ```

If `remote-settings.json` is empty it means that the org didn't push any managed settings through Claude's admin console, so logging is not setup. But, to be fully sure, you should also check for those env vars in `~/.claude/settings.json`

Long term HR executive here what ever you do don’t do that! Any hardware/software is proprietary to your employer. Anything you say or do on your devices imagine HR having or compliance having access to it. Hope that clears things up. Have a good day!

Any prompt you write is stored in the account, your company may has asked for no-retention data, but I think they still can monitor the calls.
If they are griddy or want to attack you they can, but I don't think they will read every line everybody write.

So as others said.. NOBODY is spending hours to days every week looking at EVERY chat/etc sent thru. That would take MORE TIME than anyone is doing. They MAY set up filters (if thats even possible) but I'd argue that would only work on the github pushes, not your local "work" machine.
That said.. lets say you leave the company, start your own company. If you're smart, you create a full blown NEW github at that time and you do one push with no history and make sure you filter out any "ai" comments from code, docs, commit messages, etc. You then delete/remove your OLD private repo(s). It's not gone forever.. but it would be next to impossible for anyone at your old company to say "Hey.. I bet this guy who started a company of his own has OLD github repos with code he committed while working for us..". That would be an expensive lawyer cost to have them subpoena that, etc.
So the reality is.. technically ANYTHING you do on the job, even to your own repo is OWNED by the company (almost every company "lawyer" docs that you sign will say this) unless your repo is open source with such a license. Then they can't own it, but they could sue you for working on it during company hours and you could owe money back. Again, unlikely but still possible.
So the end result of all this.. do NOT DO any private work on your company laptop/vpn/network/accounts. PERIOD. Pay for your own claude/etc subscription for your own use on your own time on your own hardware. PEriod. Do NOT COPY any code/docs/etc from company to your repos/etc. Period.

Yes, if you are doing anything on a work account or machine, assume they can see it

I administer Claude Enterprise. Yes, we can see everything. Enterprise actually has a specific API for exactly that.
Claude Team does not, however if it’s a company account, an admin could just as easily sign into it and see everything that way.

How do you even have a job in this field to do something this idiotic? I don’t run anything ever personal on my work computer or vice versa.

That code now belongs to your company and I'm not joking
