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 v2.1.227

Option to hide the welcome banner in embedded sessions

Not switched on
Useful1 Signal3
Embedded Sessions

Hosts embedding Claude Code can hide the welcome banner and logo header.

A hideWelcomeChrome option defaults off and is reachable only by an embedding host, not a setting.

What

The main prompt view accepts a new hideWelcomeChrome option that suppresses the welcome and logo header. It defaults to off and falls back to the embedded-session flag when unset, so it is only reachable by a host embedding Claude Code rather than by a setting.

Evidence

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