That condition is gone and direct upload is now the only path. Neither the environment variable nor the gate name exists in this build, so setting the variable does nothing.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_DIRECT_UPLOAD`\n\n- Area: Artifacts\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
