Its configuration now accepts a new value, `sse_connect_timeout_ms`, which limits how long Claude Code waits while setting up its live connection to the server. It must be either:\n\n- `0`, which turns the timeout off\n\n- `20000` or more, meaning at least 20 seconds\n\n**Why**\n\nIt gives a way to cap how long a remote session waits while connecting, rather than waiting indefinitely.\n\n- Area: Remote Control\n- Names: `sse_connect_timeout_ms`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
