CLAUDE_CODE_MEMORY_API_BASE_URL
A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. No mined inventory carries it: everything below comes from what this site has written about it.
What it is
Your memory API base URL and token are now hidden from every command Claude runs.
Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.227.
Presence across releases
The miner has never read a build containing this name. It is here because a changelog entry of ours names it, which is evidence that it existed and not evidence of which releases carried it. The inventory starts at v2.1.138 and everything older than that was never mined.

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_memory_api, 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.
