That list is now picked in one of two ways:\n\n- when a check reports the setup as safe, the base list is widened with several extra groups of variables\n\n- otherwise, the base list is used\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes which environment variables can reach the process started for a cloud session, which matters if that process relies on a setting from your environment.\n\n- Area: Cloud Sessions\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
