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 Design 403 message says whether your credential has access

You'll notice

Claude Design

A Claude Design 403 now says whether your credential actually grants access.

What

When Claude Code's built-in Claude Design connection is rejected with HTTP 403, the message now depends on whether your current credential actually grants Claude Design access. If it does, you get "rejected your Claude Design credential (HTTP 403)" rather than the older wording that blamed your claude.ai login for lacking access.

Details
  • Access is determined by the presence of the user:design:read permission on the credential, or by holding a design-specific credential.
Evidence

user:design:read

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