If that check fails, Claude in Chrome stays off, and setting `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_CFC` does not change that. In the previous build, `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_CFC` was checked first and could always switch it on.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf you rely on `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_CFC` to force Claude in Chrome on, it may now stay off in some setups.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Names: `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_CFC`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
