Claude in Chrome is now also skipped in restricted sessions

You'll notice

Useful2 Signal2

Permissions

Restricted sessions skip Claude in Chrome browser wiring, same as safe mode.

--restricted

What

Browser wiring for Claude in Chrome was previously skipped only under --safe-mode; it is now also skipped when the session is restricted, with the log line reworded to name both.

Details

Setting CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_CFC=1 still overrides the skip in either mode.

Evidence

[Claude in Chrome] Skipping chrome wiring: --safe-mode or --restricted

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