It also gains a way to ask the server for a switch value using a separate sign-in token, and a different way of reading the existing `tengu_recursive_puddle` switch.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is groundwork for switches controlled from the server, with nothing visible to users yet.\n\n- Flag `tengu_marble_heron`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.304; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: 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.\n- Area: Internals\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
