Unclear Whether the published model list is used at all for a given setup is not stated.
What
Claude Code can load a published list of models from Anthropic instead of relying only on the one built into it. It now has two more reasons to refuse that published list:
- The publisher holds a provider on Claude Code's built-in behaviour.
- The built-in starting copy of the list would move a model to something else.
When Claude Code is started against a third-party provider, it now puts the list off when nothing is saved locally, instead of fetching it.
Why
This lets the server keep Claude Code on its built-in model behaviour.
