201You can check for this state before a request fails: [`/status`](/docs/en/commands) shows a `Login` row reading `Expired — log in again`, plus the organization and email it has saved for the expired login. The row appears only when the saved claude.ai or Claude Console login is the active credential. The row requires Claude Code v2.1.210 or later.
