What
Claude Test is a built-in skill run with /claude-test. A skill is a packaged set of instructions Claude can follow. Two parts of it changed.
- The browser helper is a Playwright MCP server (
playwright-mcp.mjs), a small program that lets Claude drive a web browser. It now starts with a cleaned-up set of environment variables (settings passed to programs when they start). Values for proxy variables,NODE_OPTIONS,LD_PRELOADand similar ones are not taken from the project's.claude/settings.jsonor.claude/settings.local.json, and a warning says so. - The helper now checks the path to Node.js before using it. Setup results are recorded as
diskless,no_node,linked,differsorunwritable. - A new
no_nodeerror appears when no working Node.js is found or Node.js takes too long to answer. It tells you to install Node.js or set a default Node version in asdf or mise, then restart and run/claude-test. - The skill's argument hint now reads
[app folder] [all | words from a spec name, to run only those | fix | onboard], addingall. The skill's bundled instructions file also changed.
Why
A project's settings files can no longer slip values such as NODE_OPTIONS or LD_PRELOAD into the browser helper, and a missing Node.js now produces a clear instruction instead of a silent failure. The new all argument appears to run every spec, though the members only show the hint text.
