What

Artifacts are files and outputs Claude Code produces and can share. When working with artifacts, Claude Code sends a list of the capabilities it supports. In that list, the five_class_asks field used to be worked out at runtime. It is now the constant !0, which means it is always on.

  • Before, the value came from the environment variable CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_FIVE_CLASS_ASKS. An environment variable is a setting passed to a program from outside it. When that variable was not set, the value came from the remote flag tengu_cobalt_plinth_bryony, which defaulted to false.
  • The neighbouring capabilities types_on, watch_rail and auto_react are still worked out at runtime.
  • Nobody checked whether the old helper is now unused or whether CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_FIVE_CLASS_ASKS is still read anywhere.

Why

The capability no longer depends on a setting, so it is advertised for everyone. Setting CLAUDE_CODE_ARTIFACT_FIVE_CLASS_ASKS may no longer control it.

Read from
Feature flag
tengu_cobalt_plinth_bryony On for this account, and not off by default

The flag server returned on for the one account this site reads, and nothing in this release compiles it off by default. The compiled default is shown below, and says which it is when we cannot read one: a fifth of gates compile in a string or a number rather than on or off, and most published releases have no gate table behind them at all. No client can see what the server returns for your account.

This account: on · anonymous baseline: on · compiled default in v2.1.295: not a boolean we can read

These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.

What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns on for tengu_cobalt_plinth_bryony, read as this account. A reading is one sample. Claude Code evaluates its flags remotely, so no client sees the targeting rule behind a value and this says nothing about your account.
