What does this PR do? What is the motivation?
Motivation (WHY): Users repeatedly assume Bits Code sessions are private to the person who started them. This is recurring implicit feedback (a Datadog team asked how to share sessions across users/within a team for context sharing and picking up a teammate's work when they're out of office—which is already possible, since sessions are org-wide by default). The existing docs never state this; the only hint is the Archive for everyone button label, which is easy to miss.
Changes (WHAT): In
content/en/bits_ai/bits_code/_index.md:Testing/Validation (HOW verified): Documentation-only change. Verified the edited Markdown/HTML (
<i>icon shortcodes, list formatting) renders correctly, confirmed no existing internal links pointed to the changed lines, and reviewed the surrounding section for consistency in tone and terminology.Merge readiness
For Datadog employees:
<name>/<description>convention and include the forward slash (/). If you've already created your PR with an incorrect branch name, please rename your branch and open a fresh PR./reviewto run an automated check that catches common issues before a Documentation team member reviews your PR.AI assistance
Drafted with Bits Code (Claude Code): located the relevant docs, proposed the wording, and edited the file. Reviewed by a human before merge.
Additional notes
The org-wide-by-default behavior is consistent with the pre-existing Archive for everyone action. If the product also exposes a distinct "all sessions" / org-wide browsing view in the UI, a reviewer may want to add a pointer to it in the new Session visibility subsection.
