Unclear Whether reviewing a pull request as merged is actually available to any account is decided by the server and is not known.

What

The /ultrareview command (also run as /code-review ultra) now reads a new environment variable, CLAUDE_CODE_ULTRAREVIEW_PR_AS_MERGED. An environment variable is a setting you give a program from outside it, for example in your shell.

  • With the variable set, Claude Code asks the review to look at the pull request as it was merged.
  • Without it, the pull request is reviewed as it stands.
  • If you set it and Claude Code finds this mode is not available, nothing is launched and you see: "Reviewing a pull request as it was merged is currently unavailable, so nothing was launched."

The pull request lookup also now says that it reviews only pull requests on github.com.

Why

Setting the variable does not guarantee the merged review runs. Whether it is available is decided by a setting sent from Anthropic's servers, and when it is not, you get the refusal above instead of a review.
