claude auth status now shows a Cloud-gateway-specific sign-in hint instead of the generic one
When Claude Code is running through a Cloud gateway and you're not logged in, claude auth status (and its JSON output) now tells you to start claude and sign in with /login, instead of showing the generic "run claude auth login" message. The reported authentication method for these sessions also now shows as none rather than third_party.
The old generic instructions didn't apply to sessions running through a Cloud gateway, so this makes the sign-in guidance actually match how you're running Claude Code.
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.

Anthropic's documentation has since written up claude auth status, on Claude Code changelog.
Fixed /login showing "no gateway URL is configured" when re-run in a session that signed in to a Claude apps gateway set by managed settings
