Unclear It is not clear which environment variables are removed or added for the editor.
What
When Claude Code opens an external editor, such as the program named in $EDITOR, it now passes the editor a set of environment variables that it builds itself. Environment variables are named settings a program reads when it starts. Before, the editor got the same variables Claude Code was running with.
Why
If your editor depends on a particular environment variable, it may now see a different value or none at all.
