A new provider-managed env var list covers CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_FOUNDRY, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_ANTHROPIC_AWS, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_ANTHROPIC_GOOGLE_CLOUD, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_MANTLE, and CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX. Whether the gateway sign-in error message points users to /login or tells them no sign-in is needed now depends on whether one of these provider env vars is active and CLAUDE_CODE_PROVIDER_MANAGED_BY_HOST is unset.
