Claude Code v2.1.312 ·

A remotely controlled switch is now fixed to off in the code

Claude Code no longer checks one remote switch, so whatever it controlled stays off whatever Anthropic's servers send

Unclear It is not clear which feature this switch controlled, or whether anything in Claude Code still uses the check.

What

Some Claude Code features sit behind switches that Anthropic's servers can turn on or off for each account. Claude Code no longer reads one of these switches, tengu_rustling_lantern. Before, its check fell back to off when the server sent nothing. Now the check always answers off, without asking the server.

Why

Whatever this switch controlled can no longer be turned on remotely. It stays off for every account.
