66| Environment | A named group of your runners, created in claude.ai settings. Sessions are routed to an environment, not to an individual runner. |
67| Environment secret | The single shared credential runners use to authenticate and register with the environment. Shown once at environment creation, labeled **environment key** in the admin UI. |
68| Runner | The long-lived process you deploy. A runner registers with the environment, receives a runner token, and polls for sessions. |
69| Session | One Claude Code task, started from claude.ai, the mobile app, or another Anthropic surface such as a scheduled routine or an agent. Each session runs as a child Claude Code process the runner spawns. |
