When it cannot be used, Claude Code now looks up the reason in a fixed list and names it. The reasons are:\n\n- the provider, the service that runs the model, does not support it\n\n- experimental betas are off, through `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_BETAS` or organization policy\n\n- the model does not support it\n\n- the API rejected the request\n\n**Why**\n\nIf highlights does not work for you, the reason now points at what to check, such as whether `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_BETAS` is set.\n\n- Area: Thinking Display\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5"}
