What
When Claude Code falls back to applying a static defaultSettings payload, the log message now says whether that payload was armed by remote managed settings, and if so, whether it came from a session cache that hasn't yet been verified this session, versus one that has.
Why
This makes it easier to tell, from the logs, exactly which kind of fallback settings payload was applied and whether it's still awaiting verification, which matters when diagnosing unexpected settings behavior.
