What

Three commands refuse to run from inside a Claude Code session: claude edit-skill-overrides, claude edit-chrome-settings and claude drop-worktree-registrations. Each used to test CLAUDE_CODE_CHILD_SESSION itself, an environment variable Claude Code sets in programs it starts. They now all ask one shared check and print the message it returns, if any.

claude drop-worktree-registrations still gives its own message: it cannot run from inside a Claude Code session because the VS Code extension runs it.

Why

The rule is now kept in one place for all three commands. Because the shared check decides on its own, the exact conditions for refusing may differ from the old single-variable test.

How sure we are
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtWhether the shared check uses the same conditions as the old `CLAUDE_CODE_CHILD_SESSION` test is not established.
