Unclear It is not clear what leads to a refused login or when the blocked screen appears.

What

The login screen used to always show the usual choice of ways to sign in. It now depends on what kind of login is allowed:

  • refused: a notice is shown instead of the login form, and Esc closes it
  • claude.ai only: login is limited to claude.ai, as with forceLoginMethod set to claudeai
  • any method: the usual choice is shown, subject to further checks

At startup, Claude Code can also show a blocked screen when your organization's configuration cannot be loaded.

Why

If your account is managed by an organization, you may now see a refusal notice, a claude.ai-only login or a blocked screen instead of the normal login.
