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.

Chrome navigation classifier for auto mode moved to remote config

You'll notice
Useful3 Signal3
Browser Control

An env var for the Chrome navigation classifier is gone; a server setting now controls it.

What

The env variable CLAUDE_PREVIEW_CLASSIFIER_FLOOR is gone. The classifier that decides Chrome navigation in auto mode is now switched by chromeNavigationClassifierEnabled, read from a server-supplied auto-mode config and requiring an exact boolean true.

Details
  • The config object falls back to empty, so with no server value the classifier stays off.
  • Nothing in this build sets the key locally; it is decided by server configuration.
Evidence

chromeNavigationClassifierEnabled

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