Unclear The finding does not confirm that the list of non-hot-applied keys is used to decide when a restart is needed.

What

When Claude Code fills in default values for managed configuration (settings an organisation controls), it now includes internal keys as well. New helpers were added:

  • One writes configuration as JSON in a fixed, standard form, so two copies can be compared.
  • One lists changed keys that are not marked hotApplied, meaning they do not take effect while Claude Code is running.
  • A failClosedValue matcher was also added.
Why

These changes let Claude Code tell which configuration changes cannot take effect straight away. In practice nothing visible changes yet.
