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.

Remote workers can start up reporting a pending permission if you set three environment variables.

What

A remote worker's startup can report that it needs action, with details drawn from its stored state, instead of the usual idle status. It turns on only when CLAUDE_CODE_HOLD_REPORT_PARK_AT_INIT, CLAUDE_CODE_HOLD_UNANSWERED_PARKED_PERMISSION and CLAUDE_CODE_RESUME_INTERRUPTED_TURN are all set.

Details
  • The first of those three is read at the point the worker client is built and nowhere else in the build, and does not exist at all in 2.1.238, so it can only be turned on from outside the process.
  • The other two are written elsewhere in the product.
  • With the option off, startup reports worker_status: "idle" as before.
