DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Claude Code v2.1.212

Login Method Enforcement Improvements

forceLoginMethod settings are now validated per-session with clearer error messages:

  • forceLoginMethod is 'claudeai' in <settings>; log in with a Claude.ai subscription account instead.
  • forceLoginMethod is 'console' in <settings>; log in with an Anthropic Console account instead.
  • forceLoginMethod is 'gateway' in managed settings; run /login from an interactive terminal to authenticate.
  • When CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST is set, the login method is not enforced and a warning is logged.
Evidence

"forceLoginMethod is 'claudeai' in" (search for "_tt")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
