What
The egress proxy is the proxy that Claude Code's outbound internet traffic goes through. Claude Code now reports four specific reasons when a connection through it fails:
tunnel_wait_timeout: too many connections were already busy and the wait for a free one ran out
tunnel_wait_abandoned: the wait for a free connection was given up
tunnel_queue_full: the queue of connections waiting for a free one was full
ws_open_refused: the proxy refused new connections with HTTP 429 or 503, which means a rate limit
Each message tells you to run fewer downloads or requests at once.
Why
In remote sessions, these failures used to be hard to explain. Now the message says what went wrong and what to do about it.
