What
Managed settings are settings that an organisation delivers to Claude Code from a server. When fetching them fails with a 4xx status, which is a kind of error the server returns about the request itself, Claude Code now stops retrying. The exceptions are these statuses, which are still retried:
408
409
429
Before, only 401 and 403 errors, the ones about sign-in and permission, skipped the retry. The failure result now also includes more detail about the error.
Why
A request the server has already rejected will not succeed if repeated. Claude Code now gives up on those instead of trying again.
