# Session Log — 2026-05-29 — Machine Attribution Clarification

## Session Summary

The session began as a continuation from previous work on GuruRMM Integrations Center consolidation. The user performed a routine sync operation to pull any upstream changes from the shared ClaudeTools repository.

During the sync, a commit appeared in the history showing work attributed to machine "GURU-KALI" (commit d3a78b2 converting guru-connect to a Git submodule). The user clarified that this work was actually performed on machine "GURU-5070", not GURU-KALI. This was a hostname metadata discrepancy in the git commit history.

Upon checking `.claude/users.json`, both GURU-5070 and GURU-KALI were already registered as known machines for Mike Swanson (lines 9 and 12 of the users.json file). The commit authorship (Mike Swanson <mike@azcomputerguru.com>) was correct — only the hostname recorded in the commit metadata was inaccurate.

Since both machines are registered to the same user and the commit is already upstream in the shared repository history, no corrective action was taken. Force-rewriting git history would be disruptive to other team members. Future commits from GURU-5070 will correctly show that hostname.

A final sync operation confirmed all repositories were up to date with no changes to push or pull.

## Key Decisions

- **No git history rewrite**: Decided not to force-rewrite the commit history to correct the GURU-KALI → GURU-5070 hostname discrepancy, as the commit is already upstream and shared with other team members. Force-pushing would disrupt Howard's work history.
- **Documentation only**: Treated this as a documentation issue rather than a system error, since both machines are validly registered to Mike Swanson in users.json.
- **Natural correction**: Future commits from GURU-5070 will automatically show the correct hostname, allowing the history to self-correct over time.
