CLAUDE_CODE_GZIP_REQUEST_BODIES
A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. It was in the build from v2.1.199 and was gone by v2.1.242.
What it is
The stop-compressing-requests switch is now saved through the storage layer.
Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.246.
Presence across releases

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.

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_gzip, up to twelve of them.
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.
