What it is
A new CLAUDE_CHROME_PAIRED_DEVICE_ID env var pins which paired browser device Claude in Chrome connects to
Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.268.
Presence across releases
1Build by build
12One row per release since the first build this name was read out of. Absent means the build was read and the name was not in it, never mined means no bundle for that release was ever archived, and a declared type or a default is only ever what that release's own bundle stated.
First cited
1The earliest release whose published evidence quoted CLAUDE_CHROME_PAIRED_DEVICE_ID was v2.1.268, 10 Sep 2026. That is the oldest release this project wrote about it, so it is a floor on the name's age and not the release that introduced it. It is not a presence reading: which builds carried the name is the table above.
