Use when an inherited `CLAUDE_CODE_CHILD_SESSION` value, for example from a `screen` session or a background launcher first started by Claude Code's Bash tool, causes a genuine top-level session to be misclassified as nested. As of v2.1.178, Claude Code detects the tmux case automatically and ignores the inherited marker, so tmux no longer needs this variable. Also honored on v2.1.169 and earlier; has no effect on v2.1.170 and v2.1.171, where the nested-session detection it overrides was removed"},{"name":"CLAUDE_CODE_FORCE_STRIKETHROUGH","slug":"claude-code-force-strikethrough","description":"Set to `1` to force strikethrough rendering for `~~text~~` in Claude's responses when your terminal supports it but is not auto-detected, such as over SSH without `TERM_PROGRAM` forwarded. Without this, undetected terminals show the literal `~~` markers instead of rendering the text as strikethrough.

Useful for emulators such as Emacs `eat` that implement BSU\/ESU but do not reply to the capability probe. Has no effect under tmux. Unlike `CLAUDE_CODE_NO_FLICKER`, which switches to [fullscreen rendering](\/docs\/en\/fullscreen), this doesn't change the renderer"}],"url":"https:\/\/changelogs.core-directive.com\/reference\/env\/claude-code-force-evaluate-memory","family_url":"https:\/\/changelogs.core-directive.com\/reference\/env.json"}
