What
Some organizations require remote managed settings, which are settings an administrator delivers to Claude Code from a server. When none of the settings the server returns can be applied, Claude Code shows an error.
That message has been reworded. It now opens by saying the settings "could not be loaded" and then explains that none of the returned settings could be applied as written. It still ends by asking you to have your administrator fix them.
Why
Only the wording changed. People in organizations that use managed settings will see different text if this failure happens.
