A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle.
It has been in the build since v2.1.138, including the newest one read.
Any non-empty value stops Claude Code from recording errors in its in-memory recent-error log and turns off the error-reporting path fed by logError and the uncaught-exception and unhandled-rejection handlers. Claude Code also copies the variable into the environment it builds for byoc sessions.
Not Anthropic's. Written by Claude Opus 5.5 from reading the v2.1.286 bundle, and it can be wrong.

No release's published evidence quotes this name. The ledger indexes the Evidence lines of every changelog on this site, so this says nobody here has ever quoted it; it says nothing about how old the name is.

One 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.
