It's consulted alongside an existing check (`KPe()`\/`LTn`) to decide whether to short-circuit or flag an error path, guarded by `!a.CLAUDE_CODE_SIMULATE_PROXY_USAGE && !rK() && qh()`.\n\n- Flag `tengu_polished_dewdrop`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.263; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: no gate table built for this version) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Rate Limiting\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
