What
The autoUpdate setting for known marketplaces can now be centrally managed via managed-settings.json, the --settings flag, or an --add-dir directory's settings file.
Details
- Claude Code checks all settings layers in priority order. If any layer specifies
autoUpdatefor a marketplace, that value is synced to the persisted marketplace config. - Log message:
"Synced autoUpdate=<value> from settings for marketplace: <name>". - The source of the override (managed settings,
--settingsflag, or add-dir settings) is reported if the user asks to modify it: "…can't be changed here. Update that settings source (or ask your admin to) instead."
