A remotely controlled switch is a setting that Anthropic's servers can turn on or off for an account without a new release. If reading the switch fails, Claude Code treats it as off.\n\n**Why**\n\nNothing visible in Claude Code can be tied to this switch yet, so for now it does not change anything a user does.\n\n- Flag `tengu_violin_frog`: Not enough to say (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.307; this account: no value returned, anonymous baseline: no value returned, compiled default: on) 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: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
