What
The check that labels a connection as using a custom certificate authority when NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS is set now skips that label when Claude Code is started as a local agent with a matching inherited environment, so inherited CA settings are not reported as your own.
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Confirmed sinceAnthropic's documentation has since written up NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS, on Claude Code changelog.* Improved the in-session SSL certificate and proxy connection errors to name the error code and what to fix, such as `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` for an untrusted corporate CAchangelogsee the edit
