Maybe they could let users store an encrypted copy of the cache? Since the users wouldn't have Anthropic's keys, it wouldn't leak any information about the model (beyond perhaps its number of parameters judging by the size).

I'm unsure of the sizes needed for prompt cache, but I suspect its several gigs in size (A percentage of the model weight size), how would the user upload this every time they started a resumed a old idle session, also are they going to save /every/ session you do this with?

Encryption can only ensure the confidentiality of a message from a non-trusted third party but when that non-trusted third party happens to be your own machine hosting Claude Code, then it is pointless. You can always dump the keys (from your memory) that were used to encrypt/decrypt the message and use it to reconstruct the model weights (from the dump of your memory).
