Under the hood

Claude Code's local proxy can now install its security certificate into the system trust store directly, not just via a refresh helper

What

Claude Code runs a local agent proxy that needs its certificate authority (CA) trusted by the system so it can inspect secure connections. Installing that certificate into the system trust store now tries a new 'direct' method first, writing the certificate to an anchor location, before falling back to the previous approach of refreshing it through a helper command. Diagnostic telemetry now records which method succeeded (direct or refresh) and gives more detailed failure reasons, such as direct_failed_step, direct_skipped, and hook_incomplete.

Why

A more direct installation path can make trusting the proxy's certificate more reliable, and the added detail makes it easier to see why installation failed when it does.
