DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Reference / Environment variables

CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_TYPE_CLOUD_CREATE

A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. It has been in the build since v2.1.242, including the newest one read.

What it is

Listing and describing artifact types no longer prompts, and listing takes a filter.

Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.242.

Presence across releases

ReleasesReadingDeclared typeDefault
2.1.245 – 2.1.250 5 releases never mined
2.1.242 – 2.1.243 2 releases in the build triBool

A row reading never mined is a release with no archived bundle behind it. Nothing was read out of it, so nothing here says whether the name was in it. A declared type or a default is only ever what that release's own bundle stated.

Documentation pages

None of Anthropic's documentation pages this site has a copy of carries this name.

Names beside it

Every environment variable in the inventory starting claude_code_artifact_type, up to twelve of them.

CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_TYPE_CATALOGClaude could browse published artifact types to start from, but both actions are switched off. 2.1.242 CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_TYPESYou could start a private artifact from a published template, but two server switches keep it shut here. 2.1.236

Read out of the published npm bundle release by release, and out of Anthropic's own documentation as this site captured it. Nothing on this page is a description anybody here wrote about what the environment variable does. All environment variables.
