summary: We’ve removed public, internet-wide, discoverable thread sharing from Amp. You can still share threads within a workspace, or as Unlisted to share them with anyone by unguessable URL. Why? It’s getting too hard to review a thread to ensure it doesn’t contain any snippets of sensitive files. Each model release means the agents get better, and as they get better they read more files into context. Public discoverable thread sharing is just too risky now. This decision is proactive and isn’t prompted by any incident. Public discoverable threads have served their purpose well. Last year, Mitchell’s Ghostty threads and other publicly shared Amp threads helped spread the word that coding agents were actually good—and taught people how to use them. Public user profiles (like ampcode.com/@sqs) still show your activity but no longer show any threads. Any existing Public (Discoverable) threads are now Unlisted, so your blog posts with thread links won’t break.

We’ve removed public, internet-wide, discoverable thread sharing from Amp. You can still share threads within a workspace, or as `Unlisted` to share them with anyone by unguessable URL.

Why? It’s getting too hard to review a thread to ensure it doesn’t contain any snippets of sensitive files. Each model release means the agents get better, and as they get better they read more files into context. Public discoverable thread sharing is just too risky now. This decision is proactive and isn’t prompted by any incident.

Public discoverable threads have served their purpose well. Last year, [Mitchell’s Ghostty threads](https://mitchellh.com/writing/non-trivial-vibing) and other publicly shared Amp threads helped spread the word that coding agents were actually good—and taught people how to use them.

Public user profiles (like [ampcode.com/@sqs](https://ampcode.com/@sqs)) still show your activity but no longer show any threads. Any existing `Public (Discoverable)` threads are now `Unlisted`, so your blog posts with thread links won’t break.
