CLAUDE_CODE_TEAM_ONBOARDING
A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. It was in the build from v2.1.138 and was gone by v2.1.181.
Accepts banner or step; other values are ignored. Either value runs the first-run onboarding flow at startup even when onboarding is already complete, and takes precedence over the tengu_cedar_inlet flag for how the "On a team?" prompt (ask a teammate to run /team-onboarding and paste the guide) appears afterwards: step as a screen at the end of the onboarding flow, banner as an info notice. The prompt stays off when the allow_team_onboarding policy disallows it or the login is a claude.ai Pro or Max subscription.
Not Anthropic's. Written by Claude Opus 5.5 from reading the v2.1.179 bundle, and it can be wrong.

Presence across releases
2Build by build
149One 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.
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.
