DS_VALIDATE_CAP_SECONDS
A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. It was in the build from v2.1.166 and was gone by v2.1.169.
What it is
Nobody has written a line about this one. It is not in any of Anthropic's reference tables and no changelog entry here carries a description of it. It is in the build, which is the whole of what this page can claim.
Presence across releases
| Releases | Reading | Declared type | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.1.245 – 2.1.250 5 releases | never mined | — | — |
| 2.1.169 – 2.1.243 67 releases | not in the build | — | — |
| 2.1.166 – 2.1.168 3 releases | in the build | — | — |
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.
Changelog entries naming it
No changelog entry here has ever named it. That is a statement about what has been written, not about the name: it has been in the build since v2.1.166 without anybody writing a line about it.
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 ds, 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.
