Claude Code now has a case for devices with no enforced device policy, meaning no organisation rules applied to the device. In that case remote tools are reported as disabled for device policy, with the reason `remote_tools_disabled: device_policy_not_enforced`.\n\n**Why**\n\nOn a device without an enforced policy, remote tools can now be refused. If you see this reason, the device's policy is what blocks them.\n\n- Area: Remote Tools\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Scope: org\n- Heads-up: yes"}
