Claude Code v2.1.281 ·

Host-credential cache key includes APPDATA and LOCALAPPDATA

The host-credential cache now resets when APPDATA or LOCALAPPDATA change, as well as its earlier inputs

What

Claude Code keeps a stored result for host credentials, and that result is reused as long as certain values stay the same. It already depended on CLAUDE_CODE_HOST_CREDS_FILE and TMPDIR. It now also depends on APPDATA and LOCALAPPDATA, the Windows folders for per-user application data.

Why

On Windows, pointing those folders somewhere else now makes Claude Code look up host credentials again instead of reusing an old result.
