What

Claude Code reads a new environment variable, CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT_ON_REQUESTS, once at startup and then clears it. Environment variables are settings passed to a program when it starts. Its value sets the name that Claude Code's requests are sent under.

The value is ignored, with a debug message, when:

  • requests already go out under a name
  • CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT is not claude-desktop-3p
  • the value is not 1 to 32 characters of lowercase letters, digits, _ and - starting with a letter
  • the value starts with sdk
  • the value is reserved: an existing entrypoint name, any name starting with remote, or local_projects
Why

This is meant for one specific desktop app that embeds Claude Code. If you run Claude Code yourself, setting it has no effect.
