Unclear What this capability does for someone using Claude Code is not stated.

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.
