Anthropic now requires limited data retention for models it designates as covered models (Mythos-class models, such as Claude Fable 5): prompts and outputs are retained for 30 days for trust and safety purposes, on every platform where these models are offered, including platforms with zero-data-retention agreements. See Anthropic's public policy.

Our AI privacy docs previously described zero data retention as applying to all Zed-hosted models unconditionally. This PR updates them to document the exception:

  • docs/src/ai/privacy-and-security.md: Adds a "Provider Safety Retention for Designated Models" section covering what is retained, by whom, for how long, that no-training commitments still apply, and that bringing your own key does not avoid retention for covered models. Qualifies the intro, request-path table, and provider commitments table accordingly.
  • docs/src/ai/ai-improvement.md: Qualifies the zero-data-retention statements and links to the new section.
  • docs/src/business/privacy.md: Qualifies the zero-data-retention statement and links to the new section.

Looks good. For transparency: I did not review for spelling/grammar nits.
