205205| `CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_COMMENTS` | Set to `0` to stop Claude reading and replying to [comments on an artifact](/docs/en/artifacts#collect-comments-on-an-artifact). Has no effect when `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC` has [turned artifacts off](/docs/en/artifacts#availability). Requires Claude Code v2.1.221 or later |
206206| `CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_COMMENTS_AUTOREACT` | Set to `0` to stop Claude [replying on its own to comments sent to it](/docs/en/artifacts#let-claude-reply-to-comments-on-its-own). Requires Claude Code v2.1.228 or later |
207207| `CLAUDE_CODE_ATTRIBUTION_HEADER` | Set to `0` to omit the [attribution block](/docs/en/llm-gateway-protocol#system-prompt-attribution-block), which carries the client version and a prompt fingerprint, from the start of the system prompt. Caching on a direct connection to the Anthropic API is unaffected either way. In some direct-connection setups, Claude Code keeps the block on [auto mode](/docs/en/permission-modes#eliminate-prompts-with-auto-mode) classifier requests even when you set `0`. In [System prompt attribution block](/docs/en/llm-gateway-protocol#system-prompt-attribution-block), check which connections and credentials this covers. Before v2.1.181 the block included a per-request token on custom base URLs and Microsoft Foundry connections, so on those versions set it to `0` when your LLM gateway caches on the request body or forwards requests to a third-party provider, or when you connect to Microsoft Foundry directly |
208| `CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_BACKGROUND_WORKER_CHECKIN_SECONDS` | When `CLAUDE_AUTO_BACKGROUND_TASKS` is enabled, seconds between reminders to Claude to check on [background subagents](/docs/en/sub-agents#run-subagents-in-foreground-or-background) that are still running. Accepts a plain integer from `1` to `86400` only; any other value or spelling reads as unset. When unset, there are no check-in reminders. Requires Claude Code v2.1.248 or later |
208209| `CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW` | Set the [auto-compact window](/docs/en/model-config#set-the-auto-compact-window) in tokens, from `100000` to `1000000`. Accepts a plain integer such as `500000` only: a value like `500k` reads as `500` and clamps to the 100K minimum. Takes precedence over the `/autocompact` command, the `--autocompact` flag, and the `autoCompactWindow` setting. The status line's `used_percentage` always measures against the model's full context window, so once this variable is set, that percentage no longer indicates when compaction will run |
209210| `CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_CONNECT_IDE` | Override automatic [IDE connection](/docs/en/vs-code). By default, Claude Code connects automatically when launched inside a supported IDE's integrated terminal. Set to `false` to prevent this. Set to `true` to force a connection attempt when auto-detection fails, such as when tmux obscures the parent terminal. Takes precedence over the [`autoConnectIde`](/docs/en/settings-reference#autoconnectide) global config setting |
210211| `CLAUDE_CODE_AWS_CHAIN_RESOLVE_TIMEOUT_MS` | Time in milliseconds Claude Code waits for the AWS default credential provider chain to produce credentials before the request fails with [`AWS default-chain credential resolve timed out`](/docs/en/errors#aws-default-chain-credential-resolve-timed-out) (default: `60000`). Raise it when a step in your chain legitimately needs longer, such as a browser-based SSO sign-in with MFA through a wrapper like `aws-vault`. Applies wherever Claude Code signs with the default chain: [Amazon Bedrock](/docs/en/amazon-bedrock#credential-caching-and-resolution-timeout), [Claude Platform on AWS](/docs/en/claude-platform-on-aws), and the [Mantle endpoint](/docs/en/amazon-bedrock#use-the-mantle-endpoint). Requires Claude Code v2.1.207 or later |

318319| `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_CACHE_DIR` | Override the plugins root directory. Despite the name, this sets the parent directory, not the cache itself: marketplaces and the plugin cache live in subdirectories under this path. Defaults to `~/.claude/plugins` |
319320| `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_GIT_TIMEOUT_MS` | Timeout in milliseconds for git operations when installing or updating plugins (default: 120000). Increase this value for large repositories or slow network connections. See [Git operations time out](/docs/en/plugin-marketplaces#git-operations-time-out) |
320321| `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_KEEP_MARKETPLACE_ON_FAILURE` | Set to `1` to skip the re-clone attempt and keep using the existing marketplace cache when a `git pull` fails. Useful in offline or airgapped environments where re-cloning would fail the same way. See [Marketplace updates fail in offline environments](/docs/en/plugin-marketplaces#marketplace-updates-fail-in-offline-environments) |
321| `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_PREFER_HTTPS` | Set to `1` to clone GitHub `owner/repo` shorthand sources over HTTPS instead of SSH. Applies to plugin install and update, and to `/plugin marketplace add` and `update`. Useful in CI runners, containers, or any environment without a configured SSH key for `github.com` |
322| `CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_SEED_DIR` | Path to one or more read-only plugin seed directories, separated by `:` on Unix or `;` on Windows. Use this to bundle a pre-populated plugins direc
